These children experience very real disadvantages when compared to their peers: they tend to experience lower levels of educational success, social exclusion, and even a higher likelihood of their own future incarceration. Meanwhile, their new caregivers have to adjust to their new responsibilities as their lives change overnight, and the incarcerated parents are cut off from their children?s development.Parental Incarceration and the Family brings a family perspective to our understanding of what it means to have so many of our nation?s parents in prison. Drawing from the field?s most recent research and the author?s own fieldwork, Joyce Arditti offers an in-depth look at how incarceration affects entire families: offender parents, children, and care-givers. Through the use of exemplars, anecdotes, and reflections, Joyce Arditti puts a human face on the mass of humanity behind bars, as well as those family members who are affected by a parent?s imprisonment. In focusing on offenders as parents, a radically different social policy agenda emerges?one that calls for real reform and that responds to the collective vulnerabilities of the incarcerated and their kin. 606 $aPrisoners' families$zUnited States 606 $aChildren of prisoners$zUnited States 606 $aChildren of women prisoners$zUnited States 606 $aPrisoners$xFamily relationships$zUnited States 606 $aWomen prisoners$xFamily relationships$zUnited States 615 0$aPrisoners' families 615 0$aChildren of prisoners 615 0$aChildren of women prisoners 615 0$aPrisoners$xFamily relationships 615 0$aWomen prisoners$xFamily relationships 676 $a362.82/95 700 $aArditti$b Joyce A$01619730 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910812750903321 996 $aParental incarceration and the family$93952124 997 $aUNINA 999 $p$110.25$u06/08/2016$5Soc
