Hmm......bringing children up in prison - whatever next!

They will probably have mothers queueing up to go into that prison.

Grrrrrrrr
 

Indeed

"The units have a television, kitchen and garden but the mother will have to obey a curfew, report to the prison gate regularly and undergo drug testing."


All the mod cons? Is that a widescreen TV?


Hardly the best environment for a child anyway. Little Timmy is going to get odd looks from his class mates when everytime he draws a house he puts bars on the windows, barbed wire and guards near the door! :Whatever_

not to mention when he asks for the toilet and pees in a bucket!

:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Well said. To me it appears to be defeating the whole object of being sent to prison in the first place.
