Has anyone watched this show?

"Nearly 75,000 women enter American prisons annually and as many as 10 percent of them are pregnant at the time of their incarceration. In most prisons, the babies are separated from their mothers immediately following birth. A few penitentiaries, however, offer programs that allow the women to raise their children inside of a maximum security prison. This show goes inside the Wee Ones Program at the Indiana Women’s Prison, following several inmates at various stages of the program as they navigate the volatile prison environment while raising their babies. “Born Behind Bars” also profiles the staffers, including tough-love guards and inmate nannies, who help care for the newborns."

It's said watching these poor infants, you know, don't stand a chance because their mother is a total POS

That sounds super depressing.

How does anyone actually WANT to watch things like this or 600 Pound Life or Hoarders?

"That Bitch Ate My Cake" was the last episode I watched.

I feel bad for the infants, but I am curious to see how they develop with their mothers raising them inside a controlled environment vs. what their lives could/would be in the outside world.

I was thinking the same thing.

But a show like this would intrigue me. How much is it sort of like a documentary, as opposed to just being straight up reality tv? I have no interest in the latter, but would like to see the former I think. The premise is very interesting IMO.

I would consider it a docu-series. Think Lockdown on NatGeo only with women and babies.
