Deport the parents. Let the child go with them. The child keeps his citizenship. He can come back when she’s 18 and live in America.
That’s one solution.
Another is if the parents are willing to give the child up to a foster home and the child can stay here while the parents are deported.
I agree- it is a problem, and we shouldn’t be rewarding those who break the law. The child is innocent and did nothing to warrant her situation. We need to draw a distinction between the two while respecting the rights of the child to American citizenship.
What is your solution for women who live in Mexico, have no desire whatsoever to live in the US, never have and never will- yet they sneak in to have their babies so they will be US citizens? Those babies can claim all their rights as citizens whenever they choose, many cross the border every day to attend school in the US and their parents do not pay taxes to support the schools. What is your solution to wealthy people from other countries planning vacation births here so their children will be citizens? This is a much larger problem than illegals that have been here for years having a baby here that is a citizen at birth. I don’t agree with giving citizenship to children of illegals at birth even if they live here, but the problem is actually far bigger than that.
