Re: Inmate E-Mail (someone guessed right)

Ok, understood and agreed.... although no contact with a rapist/murderer/scumbag parent is probably the best thing for 
these children... not everyone is in jail for a heinous crime like that...  

 I'll give them a pad of paper, some crayons or other "safe" writing implement, paper, envelopes, and they'll have to 
purchase their own stamps...

It lets you keep in touch with your family, your lawyer, etc.  Especially if there's children involved, you really 
don't want to be punishing the innocent kids by removing the parent entirely from their life.  Also, if the inmate 
becomes estranged from his/her family due to lack of contact, that's one less reason for them to go straight when they 
get released.
