Citizen kids have right to stay

Citizen kids have right to stay

Children who are born here are American citizens. If their parents are illegal aliens and get deported, should they go too? And who should decide?
Baldemar Velasquez says the parents should decide. The Farm Labor Organizing Committee president has recruited volunteers to help immigrants make and document plans for their children. The deportation process can move quickly, he said. Families need to be prepared.
Robin Reese, executive director of Lucas County Children Services, said children “have a voice in what happens to them.” It’s the agency’s responsibility to restore children to their parents, she said. But “we are not in the business of sending kids to other countries.”
And the immigration service isn’t in the business of deporting citizens.

If an individual, including one designated by the parents, has legal custody, that person has the power to take the child overseas, said LCCS lawyer Cynthia Battles. But if Children Services has custody, even if the child has been placed with the person the parent picked, the agency would get a say on foreign travel.
In that process, the child’s voice should have the most weight, if he is old enough and mature enough to articulate it.
Young children often know little of the world beyond their families, and nothing may be more important for them than to be restored to their parents’ arms. But as people grow, they become integrated into society, not just their family. They learn the language of their nation. So young Americans should not be ripped from their country against their will because their parents have been deported.
Family and country are both important values, and children who are not prepared to choose between them should not be forced to. But when young citizens who understand their predicament express a clear preference, that preference should be respected.
Mr. Velasquez and his volunteers should be commended for trying to help parents preserve their families. In many cases, that’s what’s best for the children. But when a young citizen says he wants to stay in his own country — the United States — his government should protect his right to do so.

WRONG!! They are not really American citizens. They are children of illegal aliens born in our country in violation of US immigration law. How can they be "citizens" of the United States? They are not and I wish people would stop pushing this farce. There is no way in hell illegal aliens banned by law from our soil and jurisdiction can breed US citizens, subject to the jurisdiction of the United States. Such a claim is the Oxymoron of the Century.

As long as they stay, they continue to get the welfare benefits paid to the person caring for them - children need to stay with their parents util they are of a legal age.

They probably concluded they need legislation like Steve King's bill. I hope the House pushes this bill forward to end anchor baby citizenship.

Parents, whether they are legal or illegal, CANNOT just dump their children anywhere they want to, or on anyone's doorstep.
And not be able to choose to dump them on another country!
They are not orphans...they have real live parents who ARE their guardians and custodians.
The illegal parents are their legal guardians and the MINOR'S get deported with them.
No illegal alien should be able to collect US taxpayer benefits on BEHALF of a US citizen...minor or otherwise!
This is sheer nonsense!ILLEGAL ALIENS HAVE "BROKEN" OUR IMMIGRATION SYSTEM
DO NOT REWARD THEM - DEPORT THEM ALL

Our country is under legal siege by traitors in our Courts, 501 C 3's, and Congress. It's a terrible situation.
