Wrong, wrong, wrong

Wrong side of the border, wrong income level, wrong skin color...

"The fortunate children were being looked after by foster carers, albeit hundreds of miles away from the border and with no knowledge of, nor means of contacting, the children’s parents. Many others were being detained, some in “cages created by metal fencing.” [2] Although initially shrouded in secrecy, accounts of the terror that they were experiencing slowly began leaking out."

The government is now attempting to use DNA testing to reunite children with their parents—a slow process that is not always conclusive, and is particularly problematic in the case of several parents who have already been returned to their country of origin. For now, the children are being held in what are euphemistically termed “tender-age shelters”, or what might otherwise be called baby and toddler jails. Adding a further level of stress, these children—some still in diapers—were ordered to appear in court. Separating children from their parents at the border, however, amounts to using children to manipulate parent’s decisions, which may cause irreversible, lifelong damage to both children and their parents."
