I suggest they wear helmets and use mouthpieces if they don’t want to get hurt. Jeez. A little protection goes a long way.

Thousands of children whose parents are arrested in immigration raids in the U.S. face mental health issues including post-traumatic stress disorder, separation anxiety and depression, according to a new study released Wednesday by the Urban Institute.Mexican psychologists can handle it, I'm sure.

"Those children were born in America, and we forgot about their rights during the raids, because they were left parentless," said Steve Joel, superintendent of Grand Island Public Schools, which encouraged parents to keep their children in school following a December raid at the Swift & Co. meatpacking plant.Sounds like Joel and the owners of the Swift& Co. plant should be thrown in the slammer.

What’s wrong with illegals? Why are they putting their children at risk? Unfit parents...

I don’t have the answers here but who crys for the children of mom or dad who are arrested for other crimes. When is the last time someone was not sent to jail because it was too hard for the kids. I watch some of these prison shows and it makes me teary eyed seeing these “bad girls” having to hand over their new born or visiting their children.

That these children suffer is the fault of their parents. Children of criminals are likely to suffer.
I am getting sick of the whining. Illegal aliens and immigrants who commit crimes or come here for welfare need to be deported.

The study was commissioned by The National Council of La Raza . . .So much for the relevance of that study. How much importance can one give to a report produced by anybody's Race Based Council?
Children of lawbreakers are harmed by the actions of the lawbreakers.
I have a lot of sympathy for illegal immigrant children who have spent most of their lives in the United States. I have even more sympathy for American chldren born to illegal immigrant parents. But when you get to the bottom rung of accountability and responsibility, you're right. "Children of lawbreakers are harmed by the actions of the lawbreakers."

Boo-effing-hoo. Pass the the world’s smallest violin and I’ll attempt to give a flying rat’s. I expect that if the laws in this country are ever enforced, we’ll have a ship load of these sob stories by the MSM. If we “gringos” were the illegal invaders in Mexico and got raided and deported, I seriously doubt MeHICO would give a damn about splitting up families, the kids or any pets the kids would have.

Cry me a river. The parents ought to have thought about how their illegal actions would affect their kids...same applies to any crimminal. One shouldn’t get a lighter sentence b/c one happens to have children....

Wonder when they will do a study on American kids who are affected when their American parents lose their jobs, livelihoods, and even their lives, to illegal aliens.
La Raza (The Race) would never do a study like that

Above all the politically correct caterwauling, let us remember that these children, what ever their fate, are suffering because of a decision made by their parent(s).

Thousands of children whose parents are arrested in immigration raids in the U.S. face mental health issues including post-traumatic stress disorder, separation anxiety and depression, according to a new study released Wednesday by the Urban Institute.
A child is left without at least one parent for every two adults detained in workplace raids, the study said, and most of those children are citizens or legal immigrants.
"Those children were born in America, and we forgot about their rights during the raids, because they were left parentless," said Steve Joel, superintendent of Grand Island Public Schools, which encouraged parents to keep their children in school following a December raid at the Swift & Co. meatpacking plant.
American born children are seperated all time from their Amercian born parents when mom and/or dad breaks the law. Get over it.

Odd, the MSM applauded this move!

Study: Kids Hurt by Immigration Raids
Reality: Legal resident children hurt worse by LACK of Immigration Raids
(i.e., over-crowded schools, cram-packed ERs, etc, etc, etc.)

Sorry, but even breaking out my nanotech violin would be more effort than this “story” deserves.
