From the article:

Her father feared for the worst and told Lee that if she told anyone, she could be deported to Brazil, where Lee was born. Her parents would be deported to Korea, where they were born. And her little brother, who was born in Chicago, would be left in foster care in the Unites States.

---------------------
So...If the parents got deported, they would have abandoned her "little brother" to foster care. That statement says a lot about her parents and none of it is good. No one would have stopped them from taking him with them. In fact, any decent parent would have done that.

Tereza Lee is no hero. She is just another so-called DREAMer who was raised without a moral compass. Instead of making an effort to correct her immigration status, she demanded that we all bow down to her and other illegals like her.

Brazil is a poor country with elementary age children literally living on the streets in groups with no adult (or even teenage) supervision and no state system of orphanages. There is no way they'd take her from her father if he were deported to Korea. The US of course would not kidnap her brother and hold him here either. We need to start shaming these DACA parents for the psychological trauma they put their children through. The DACA children are demanding amnesty for their parents, but the parents are liars, cheats, and emotional child abusers who fail the good moral character test that's supposed to be part of the immigration process.

Many of the parents of both DACA and anchors are guilty of emotional abuse. Also, telling your kids to not tell you have broken the law because horrible things will happen to them........... Using one's kids for gain............

The parents of this young woman were emotionally abusing her back when she was a small child. What is the worst fear that a seven year old could face? That her family would be broken apart by American authorities, and it would be all her fault. That's a lot to lay on the shoulders of a little girl. Thanks to her parents, she grew up afraid of authorities, afraid of saying the wrong thing to the wrong person, afraid of losing her family, afraid that she would be left alone, afraid that her friends and teachers would find out who and what she was. That's despicable.

On a side note, I came here legally many years ago. Filled out all the paperwork, went to all the interviews, took all the pictures, went to all the physicals, had all the fingerprints taken and background checks done, paid all the money, waited in line all the years. I am an American citizen now.

I never had to look over my shoulder. I didn't have to remember all the lies, buy all the fake IDs, wonder when that fateful knock on the door was going to happen. There are millions of people across the world - as we speak - going through the same process I went through. Waiting their turn. Honoring the laws of the country in which they aspire to live. How do you think I feel when I read "heart wrenching stories" of illegals? How do you think those across the world who are waiting in line right now feel?

Maybe true to a certain degree.
