Imperfect by CNA Insider - How can I be a good parent … if I went to jail?

Growing up with an absent father, ‘James’ was jailed twice as a young man. But when he became a parent, he told himself he would never leave his two sons without a father. He ended up doing exactly that when he was sentenced to nearly four years in prison. 

In this special episode of Imperfect by CNA Insider, we go behind the walls of Changi Prison to find out what it’s like to live with perhaps the worst mistake you’ve ever made as a parent. Can ‘James’ still be a good father to his teenage sons? And why is he so sure this stint in prison will be his last?

This is the final episode in this season. If you’ve got a view on the topic or an idea for future episodes, write to us at cnainsider [at] mediacorp.com.sg (cnainsider[at]mediacorp[dot]com[dot]sg).
