However, for those incarcerated, the chance to meet with their children becomes a luxury. Yi, a working mother, has two little sons aged three and six. Her younger son suffers from long-term illness that requires special care, while her older son shares a close bond with his father. In the past, his father would spend time with him during his leisure hours, making the older boy heavily dependent on his dad. But everything changed when Yi learned that her husband was going to prison. Though she felt a whirlwind of complicated emotions, Yi also had to consider the emotional well-being of her two sons. She noticed a significant change in her sons’ behavior since the father’s incarceration. “Sometimes, they would throw tantrums over trivial things, like searching for a toy”, she explained. This led to friction in their parent-child relationships. Understanding her sons’ need for their father, Yi occasionally took them to visit him in prison. However, the boys were often resistant to these encounters, wanting to leave quickly, which left Yi feeling disheartened.

Through this project, children could break down barriers and spend quality time with their fathers at Parent- child Centre. “After two visits, I can see that my sons noticeably became more cheerful”, Yi remarked. Besides, both she and her husband attended parenting courses to learn to build up and maintain parent-child relationship, with social workers providing follow-up counseling and emotional support. Yi markedly felt that changes happened on her husband since joining the program, “He has begun to understand the challenges I face as a mother and wife, which has made him more willing to care and empathise.” This RI[JSYRH YRHIVWXERHMRK WIIQIH XS JSWXIV E JVIWL WXEVX JSV XLI JEQMP] ƼPPIH with hope and renewal.
