Wait for it; five, seven years from now, you’ll see new One Act Plays, and Unauthorized Biographies written in spanish, then translated to english from some of these young arrivals. Some will say they were kept as sex slaves or forced to steal by their host relatives. Child labor laws will be violated. The lawyers will then have a new wave of victims to sue for, and they will be exploited once again. Their parents share some, if not all the blame for abdicated their role of being responsible for the welfare of their children. I’m surprised there are so many kids coming alone from far south of Mexico.
The woman I saw on tv tonight said she hasn’t seen her kids in 8 years. That means she came here and left them in Guatemala when they were 7 and 2 years old.
