Perhaps less hard rules, more case by case discretion.

Sorry, parents in prison do not get to spend time with their kids, and that's that. If you get knocked up in prison or otherwise have a baby in prison, you spit out the kid, and then right back to prison.
Same thing with fathers. They don't let fathers see their babies when they are in prison. On one hand that's why some kids are so fucked up - no parents. Then again, I've seen lots of kids just as fucked up with two good parents.
