MINNEAPOLIS (AP) — In some ways, 10-year-old Giancarlo is one of the lucky ones. He still goes to school.
Each morning, he and his family bundle up and leave their Minneapolis apartment to wait for his bus. His little brother hefts on his backpack, even though he stopped going to day care weeks ago because his mom is too afraid to take him.
As they wait behind a wrought-iron fence, Giancarlo’s mother pulls the boys into the shadow of a tree to pray. It’s the only time she stops scanning the street for immigration agents.
“God, please protect my son when he’s not at home,” she says in Spanish. She spoke with The Associated Press on condition of partial anonymity for the family, because she fears being targeted by immigration authorities.
For many immigrant families in Minnesota, sending a child to school requires faith that federal immigration officers deployed around the state won’t detain them. Thousands of children are staying home, often for lack of door-to-door transportation — or simply trust.
The fear has turned into reality. Many parents and some children have been detained, including 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos, who with his father, originally from Ecuador, was taken into custody in the Minneapolis suburb of Columbia Heights as he was arriving home from school. They were sent to a detention facility in Texas but returned after a judge ordered their release.
Schools, parents and community groups have mobilized to help students get to class so they can learn, socialize and have steady access to meals. And for those who are still sending their children, the trip to and from school is one of the only risks they are willing to take.
“I don’t feel safe with him going to school,” Giancarlo’s mother said, shaking her head. “But every day...”

Leftists love the prayers of illegals and Muslims, while mocking Christian Americans for praying.
How about going back to your legal country of residence and sending them to school there?!?
I assume to Santa Muerte.
I DON’T CARE. GET OUT.
You know what raises my blood pressure, lady? You and your husband waltzing across the border without following proper procedures to take jobs from US citizens.
Well then, go home.
So AP confirms that there are thousands of illegal aliens consuming public services in MN. Good to know. Maybe if they self deported they would not have to live in fear of deportation.
Statistically, that's a legit fear in a sanctuary city.
Being picked up and sent home is still such a rarity that you can chill out --nothing to worry about, kids.
Bovine scatology. Cutting “unaccompanied” toddlers loose at the border with a note asking that they be given asylum is an act of faith too. BS.
Oh boo hoo. If you’re here legally, there’s no problem. You might be stopped, but that’s the cost of living in MN right now because other illegals are complicating your life.
I thought leftists hated faith.
The Media are the enemy.
May they suffer extreme loss and pain.
Looks to me like she and her husband both quit their jobs. Makes me assume they’re now simply living on government assistance. Welfare, WIC, food stamps/SNAP, Section 8, medicaid, schools, etc. ILLEGALLY!
Once again, All Propaganda news carries the water for communist-globalist elites while screwing American and Legal Immigrant taxpayers.
“I assume to Santa Muerte.”
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hahahaah. You might be right!
More illegal alien invaders SOB stories. If the illegal aliens had all this “bravery and courage” they use to flash their race cards at the gringos, if they had the tribes of illegal alien shyster lawyers and corrupt, angry XX Democrat Feral judgettes at home where they came from, they’d still be there. Unfortunately, the third world turd holes they crawled out of don’t have race cards and “wet dream dew process.”
So the AP is admitting that WE the taxpayer are paying for illegal alien children to go to school. Deport the ENTIRE family problem solved
go to school in your own country then
Cool story, bro.
