Nursery programs allow imprisoned moms, newborns to bond

Three-week-old Kevin fussed in mother Melissa Lankey's arms until she started singing softly to him, "Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so." The newborn began dozing within seconds.

They are now comforted and know that they'll be free one day to continue to sprout more and more babies, adding to the Earth smothering human population.

It's a dirty job but someone has to do it. Who better to pop out the next generation than those who don't think about consequences?

I think the point here is that the children will be benefiting by bonding with the the mother, who will then be giving herself a reason to think about consequences. The children are already on the way, its nice that the mothers who will be getting released have the opportunity to spend time with them so they can function as a family unit so the child will hopefully not be thrown out into the foster care system.

No its not a good idea, this is all a bunch of liberal garbage hocus pocus, why should a child growup in a prison cell as if he/she is a criminal ha?? Its not the childs fault that the mother is a criminal, and like i said before giving women these nursery programs is giving her an opportunity to not serve her punishment. Prison is a punishment my freind, not a school, and kids who growup in these types of enviroment will see how much of a loser their mom is and go through life knowing they are criminals themselves. My idea that if i were president of the United States of America would be to round up all these women inmates and let them serve time in a Russian gulag. Or either that, just simply work their asses off in a hot broiling chaingang where they will be strapped like animals that they wanna be. Our prison are already too softhearted as it is by giving criminals weights, basketball and TV. No throw these people in an Alaskan Gulag or Russian Gulag where they will be working constantly like slaves. They wont have time to think or goof off since the hard work laborer would keep them on their feets 247. Working them in prison laborer will make them so tired that by the time women inmates get out of prison, they wont wanna comeback. You see Smart One, your idea's are too liberal for our prison systems, yeah lets live by your rules and when these ex-cons get released, they comeback like its a Sheraton hotel
