hello! Michael Santos i have read your articles on the “Prison Policies Block Families from Nurturing ties with loved ones in Prison” as well as “Prisoners Should have more access to Family and Community” and as a family oriented person i can not imagine myself being restricted to talk or be with my family the way you and other prisoners are restricted. i know from own experinces that in hard times family are the number one thing that allow the human person to keep going and not to give up. my questions to you are:
1) If congress has shown a high correlation between the family as a means to better nurture the offender into transition, but at the same time you have prison authorities eliminating these nurturing ties with familes, how does this affect you and what time of feelings arose from hearing that family ties are important but yet your limited to exposure to family? 2)you as being inside bars upon your release what type of things are you prepared to do in order to make changes in policies restricting family ties?
3) what resources have you used to keep ties with other family members besides your wife to keep those emotional ties still alive?
