dc.description.abstract | Psychosocial health of children of incarcerated parents is a critical area of concern and yet acutely neglected in India. Despite Supremecourt guidelines on ensuring age-appropriate care for children living along with their mothers in prison, there is variance in practice, whichcompounds the disadvantage of being a prisoner’s child. The children left behind at home due to parental incarceration also experiencevulnerabilities that emanate from their pre-existing socio-economic disadvantages, the continued interface of the child with the criminaljustice system, as well as societal perception towards them. This results in a pronounced effect on their health, and educational, socialand emotional wellbeing. Conscious efforts are required for strengthening the factors that could mitigate the adverse consequences ofparental incarceration coupled with a debate on penal populism and the social and economic costs associated with the same. | en_US |
