Not only thatwhen ICE catches these minors, they are taking them to the parents and reuniting them instead of deporting everyone. Word is out and the parents are sending for the kids know that once they make it across the border, they are home free even if they’re caught. Heck it’s a free trip for the kid if they are caught.
Yep, that "anchor" in "anchor baby" works both before and after the fact, doesn't it? Throw the kid over first, family follows, or throw the family over first, kid follows to "secure" everyone. Nice deal all around, isn't it?
