From a story on Time's website..

Administration officials said Monday that there has been a 90% increase in the number of undocumented immigrants under 18 entering the U.S., with more young girls and children under 13 entering the country than ever before.

The Obama Administration also requested an additional $1.4 billion to provide relief for unaccompanied immigrant children. Due to the increase in kids illegally crossing the border alone—expected to reach as high 60,000 this year—the government expects it will cost $2.28 billion to fund the programs that aid unaccompanied minors, the Associated Press reports.

Too bad for the kids, but they could have used this money at the VA Hospital in Phoenix

These are not all Mexican children. They are now coming from South American countries.

My God, 60,000 a year. That's the equivalent of 2 mid sized American cities and these kids are non-taxpayers but tax users. When are we going to stop this nonsense and say "no more"?
