Make the cutoff age 18, why not? True it's arbitury but every age requirement is.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. - The U.S. Supreme Court has rejected a suburban Kansas City mother's request to postpone her deportation order, a penalty she faces because courts found she lied about her citizenship in 1998 when she crossed the border illegally from Mexico, her lawyers said Friday.

Myrna Dick, 32, is married to an American citizen, and her 19-month-old son was born in the Kansas City area. Dick, who speaks fluent English, was raised in Chihuahua, Mexico, but spent the last two decades in the United States.

Justice Samuel Alito denied the motion for a stay of deportation Friday evening, immediately following the 8th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeal's rejection of the same request, said Dick's attorney.

RAYMORE, Mo. - Myrna Dick is desperate for her young son to take a nap, so she cajoles him with soft Spanish phrases. "Vete a dormir, mijo," she says, telling Zachary to sleep as he fumbles for Teddy Grahams. "Take the bear in your arms and the two of you go lie down."

It's a suburban life, in a place that hosts fishing derbies and Easter egg hunts and calls itself the "Garden Spot of the State." But it's a life that Zachary, snug in his cornflower-colored jumpsuit, was very nearly denied.
