Ruth Gomez had been calling home to her mother in Honduras every evening, but it was a bittersweet experience. It was good to let her know she was safe, but it was painful too, to speak to her and especially to her four-year-old son and seven-year-old daughter.
Earlier this month, Ms Gomez and two of her brothers heard about the migrant caravan on television and decided on the spot to join. Now, they were preparing to spend the night in a small park overlooking the town of Pijijiapan, where they had put a white flag that fluttered in the cooling breeze and was inscribed with the words May peace and God be with us.
There are no opportunities for us in Honduras, she said, wiping away tears as she talked of the decision to leave her children and showing a photograph of them. I do not think it will be easy to cross [the US border], but also not impossible.

Ms Gomez said her childrens father was no longer on the scene. This made her more determined to be able to provide for her son Dorian and daughter Alejandra. She had worked in Tegucigalpa, doing bar work and other jobs, but it was not enough to raise a family.
When it was suggested to her she was being brave by embarking on a journey of more than 2,000 miles, she said: I feel I am not brave because I left the children behind.
She added: Our education system is not good. And if the children need to go a doctor, I cannot take them.
She said she told her children she was leaving she did not know for how long and believed her daughter understood. She said her mother Daisy supported her decision and was looking after them.

and Jorge Soros offered us immediate cash and more when we arrive at the border.
Be prepared to hear more and more of these type of stories. Sadly we could find about 4 billion more in this world.
Oh yes, I have so much respect for this deadbeat mom!

If she is in fact a mom, I’m wondering if she sold her kids.
And that's OUR fault because why? You shouldn't be popping out kids until you get married, idiot.
Yes. She showed a picture of her kids on her iPhone. Well, it does look like an iPhone 8 Plus and not an iPhone X, so I can see how that makes her impoverished.
I truly wish they would go ahead and put up razor wire and show that we are serious about not letting this vermin in our country. The last thing we need or want in America are deadbeat parents who think that we’re going to support their spawn, women who are such bad mothers that they actually leave their children behind. This disgusts me.
She appears to be pretty well fed.
These stories don’t help their cause.
And now she wants her problems to become our problems.
Sorry not buying it, do it the right way legally or stay home!
Leah Remini + 25 kilos?
wonder how everyone is charging their phones..just saying
The woman has an iPhone, is wearing makeup and lipstick. How bad off can she be? Where is she getting her phone charged?
Omg! The tears just won’t stop. Poor poor Ruth and her lovely children.
I’m gonna drive to Mexico and give her a lift ...
... back to El Shitola.
“Ruth Gomez had been calling home to her mother in Honduras every evening...”
How she charging that smart phone if they’re walking all day? Is the carrier still billing her for the service? They must pick the comfortable places to sleep at night, not a tent.
so she’s going to come to America, work for cash, not pay taxes on that cash then send that money back to her kids in honduras...once again stealing from Americans...
