"DBT theory suggests that some people's arousal levels in certain situations can increase far more quickly than the average person's. This leads a person to attain a much higher level of emotional stimulation than normal, and it may take a significant amount of time to return to normal emotional arousal levels" (Grohol 2010)
The reason, one study suggests, may be inadequate program design, given that most approaches to training focus on males and are the program paradigm is merely transferred to female prisons with the same approach. The employment rate of formerly incarcerated women is similar to the level of their pre-incarceration period, suggesting a failure of appropriate vocational training and social support for women inmates (Lalonde & Cho 2005)
Women may be threatened with having their children taken away or being unable to see their children if they are not compliant: women who give birth in prison tend to have their children removed from them after a year or so (depending on the country and the state) so the child is not punished along with the incarcerated mother (Sudbury 2004). Women's imprisonment may be viewed as making them 'unfit' even though desperation to support their children may have driven them to illicit activity in the first place such as the case of women who turn to prostitution or Barbara Parsons who was "molested by her grandfather when she was 4, Parsons shot and killed her abusive husband when he revealed that he had molested her granddaughter" and "convicted of manslaughter due to emotional duress" (Lamb 2008)
Because women are more likely to be single parents than former male inmates this can also hamper their ability to find a good job, if readily available, high-quality day care is not accessible during the day while the woman is at work. "67% of the 148,200 women incarcerated in jails, state prisons, or federal prisons were mothers of minor children" (Rose 2005)
S. prisons and jails doubled between 1985 and 1995, women's imprisonment during the same period tripled" (Sudbury 2002)
4% of females reporting a serious mental disorder." (Wolff et al
Women imprisoned in state and federal correctional institutions throughout the United States totaled 94,336 at mid-year 2001, representing 6.6% of the total prisoner population" (Zaitzow 2004)
So you have each state having some control over its higher education system, the result of that being that there are fifty different interpretations of policy objectives. Then there is the executive action of the President -- and subsequent court challenges to that action (London, 2015)
Given the urgency of his son's case, the second option is rather daunting. Ultimately, John ends up holding emergency room patients and staff members hostage, to ensure his son is catered to (Bangura, 2011)
