Both the Swedish Prison and Probation Service and the Social Service try to ease the contact between the children and their parents. They both mentioned that they sometimes work differently depending on the sex of the parent. There is collaboration between the two authorities but only on a man to man basis. They all agree that an improvement in the collaboration can be made. (Less)
