Explanation:
Possessive forms are commonly used as modifiers for verb forms that are used as nouns or gerunds. The use of the possessive affects how we read the sentence. "I'm worried about Joe running in the park after dark," for example, means that I'm concerned about Joe and the fact that he runs in the park after dark (the word "running" is a present participle modifying Joe). "I'm worried about Joe's running in the park after dark," on the other hand, emphasises Joe's running ("running" is a gerund, and "Joe's" modifies that verbal). We almost always use the possessive form of a noun or pronoun to modify a gerund.
