It lets you keep in touch with your family, your lawyer, etc. Especially if there's children involved, you really don't want to be punishing the innocent kids by removing the parent entirely from their life. Also, if the inmate becomes estranged from his/her family due to lack of contact, that's one less reason for them to go straight when they get released.
