Sometimes visits just don’t go according to the way you had it in your mind. I remember er once it got so tense we just called it quits, well my person inside did and I felt embarrassed with everyone staring at us as he walked off. I too kicked myself further for not getting it right. Talking with others, this was not an isolated incident and many spoke about tense visits where they wished they hadn’t even gone.
Over time I learnt there were some ‘rules’ that I could put into practice so that our visits could go better. These helped a lot.
This week I read an article on visit rules written by an ex prisoner and now author Lennie Spitale. Lennie spells out the 10 rules for visits much clearer than I ever could. They all just make sense too!
Happy reading (click on the link below) and here’s to more successful visits!
