The chaplain, with a religious background practicing pastoral care, plays a role that conflicts with the norms of the secular institution that formally employs him. In this regard, prison is a highly challenging workplace. Drawing on qualitative data, we examine the position and identity of the prison chaplain in the Czech prison system. We argue that the main source of tension within the workplace is the chaplain’s profound interest in a prisoner’s personal life. This tendency is in a clear contrast with the intentions of the punitive prison system. Examples the potential of chaplain’s role are also discussed.

Although still a marginalized practice, home-schooling is on the rise internationally and across socio-economic groups. Moreover, the current Covid-19 pandemic has shifted additional attention to home-schooling. However, much of the available research is primarily concerned with the current day-to-day practice of home-schooling and little attention is paid to adult home-school graduates. This exploratory study, based on qualitative interviews with mothers and adult children from 12 families, examines young adults’ overall evaluation of their past home-schooling experience and aims to understand how parents and children view the pros and cons of home-schooling in hindsight. The data analysis revealed that home-schoolers approach education more broadly than focusing strictly on the academic side and it identified the common theme of “gifting,” which challenges the prevailing conceptualization that home-schooling is a “sacrifice.” Respondents viewed their home-schooling experience as a mutually beneficial process of giving and receiving rather than a unidirectional act of “sacrifice.”
