I doubt that many kids are left home alone. Mexican families take care of their children, and their elders, better than most. And it is usually the kids who learn English first, often acting as interpreters for their parents. It is easier for the kids to adjust than their parents. Some parents send their kids here with older siblings, but they are usually always looked after.
While most people out here think immigration laws should be enforced, and that schools shouldn't be in the position of having to enroll illegal children, it has little to do with denying them an education. I think a lot of people may have voted for Morris because they are tired of all the liberal crap. Not because they thought she would crack down on illegal kids in our schools.

So, what do you think about paying for their kids education? I agree that it's unfair, but I do not see an alternative if we are not going to enforce immigration laws.
