Should my 15 year old daughter visit her mom who will be in jail
Question Posted Sunday October 30 2022, 2:28 am
The charge is a check fraud charge and it is a six month sentence. My daughter she seems to be handling it fine. I told her right away about it and she reacted pretty calmly. I told her mom did the wrong thing and is rightfully serving her punishment. They have a good relationship. The main problem I have is she will see her mom in a jail jumpsuit and see guards and other inmates that could be intimidating. Is that ok for a 15 year old to see? Actually my daughter does not seem scared but instead seems excited and enthusiastic to visit. This is strange to me. Do you find this normal? My daughter seems to find the idea of her mom having to wearing a uniform, sharing a room funny.
Interestingly I talked to a guard and the guard said your daughter won’t find it scary or depressing since her mom won’t be gone too long and it’s for a white collar crime. She’ll find it interesting instead. The guard said relax and basically treat it as a field trip in a way
