title: [The right to be a mother in prison].
abstract: Since the beginning of the 21st century, legislation has been in place framing the rights of women prisoners. Pregnancy, motherhood and family life can be organised despite the complications and the difficulties. It is however preferable to favour alternative sentences, outside prison, in order to offer the child and the mother more suitable solutions.
