Parenting by incarcerated fathers: The case of the Czech Republic

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

The chapter focuses on parenting by incarcerated fathers in the Czech Republic and frames it within the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. Using quantitative and qualitative data from the Parenting Behind Bars project, it describes the family background of convicted men, the number and age of their children, the extent of previous co-residence and the forms of contact during imprisonment. The analysis shows how insecure couple relationships, economic hardship, prison regimes and stigma restrict fathers’ opportunities to exercise parental authority and participate in their children’s everyday lives. Particular attention is paid to dilemmas around disclosing imprisonment to children and to the possibilities and limitations of different communication channels (visits, letters, phone calls, digital tools). The chapter concludes with implications for social work and criminal justice aimed at strengthening children’s right to maintain a relationship with their father and at reducing the risk of reoffending.
