During this period, mothers fail to exercise reasonable care in children, occurring disruption of maternal functions. It is a qualitative, exploratory and descriptive study that used as a strategy, to collect data, semi-structured interviews, which were recorded and transcribed for analysis and categorization. It was identified that the perception of the importance of motherhood and the need to care for children served as the motivation for serving the sentence and overcoming the limits imposed by the prison system.
