They aren't!
Pew research just showed 90% are teenagers or young adults.
This has been obvious from the pictures we've seen of them.

Obama now planning to pick up children from refugee countries and fly them here because it's safer for them.
UNBELIEVABLE!

Since they're now refugees and not victims of child trafficking and we're going to go and bring them to the US that means Obama doesn't need that $3.7 billion to speed up deportation hearings..right ?

And the US is going to process minors without their parent's permission ?

Maybe the U.. should work with democratically elected Central American governments to make life more just in those countries and stop the U.S. 'war on drugs'. Oh, right, the U.S. government - including Obama Administration - repeatedly overthrows elected Central American governments and conducts military operations that terrorize innocent people and directly contributes to drug warfare and the associated misery. But who cares, because Americans are generally too stupid to realize it is our government that is responsible for the problems plaguing Central America.

In regards to the parents from what I am reading many of their parents are already here illegally. How could they leave their children in the homeland where it is claimed that there is so much violence? Why didn't the whole family come here together and ask for asylum? Hmm. I smell a rat.

That's right fb. We are going to go down to these countries and fly the kids up here so they don't have to make that dangerous journey.

Have you ever been to CENTRAL AMERICA? Read up about our history in Central America and then get back to us.

Doesn't that make us guilty of child trafficking?

As an analogy, that's like firing all the bank guards to assure the bank robber doesn't get shot at during his attempt to rob the bank.
