But I dont do this because of some "gushypoo" feeling here. I am doing this because of the actual documented violence in these countries. and I believe we need to respond to the needs of the children. Let them tell their case not only to a social workerwhich is a good step. in my mindbut also to an immigration judge. and using the laws of our country. the legal criteria for asylum and refugee status. lets listen to the stories of the children. And if those children qualify for asylum and refugee status. then they should remain in this country. If they dont. there are other avenues for them to return home. But for gosh sakes. could we stop punishing the children for the crimes of the drug dealers and the human traffickers?
