"The Kids should have known their dad was illegal and started looking for a new home before going to school that day"
-anti-illegals
No, their "loving" dad should have thought enough of his children to take the proper steps to legalize his status. He didn't. Just as the children of citizens suffer due to the lawless behavior of their parents, these children must pay the price for the selfish/unlawful behavior of their dad.
Please quote where anyone has blamed these children.

Benicar you and that logic is going to start trouble again.

I so agree with you, what any of these parents do not realize, is the conseuences their children will suffer, because of their lawlessness.
I could never imagine when my children were young, leaving them behind for anyone or any Country, would not happen.
But in the quest, to break laws, and enter into this Country illegally, these parents, put their childs welfare at risk, does that not matter.
This case is different, and as someone said already, why make more babies, with someone as his wife.

Oh well I guess you can't call these kids anchor babies...

Why would this be any different than a parent that decides to rob a bank and goes to prison? Do we stop punishing people because they have children. It is a shame that the children are the ones that truly pay, but we not only make our own bed, we make the bed for our kids too.. You break the law, you pay the consequences.

Why not? Most likely, this guy thought if he married a U.S. citizen (anchor wife) AND fathered children in this country (anchor babies), he would probably escape deportation. Otherwise, realizing his deportable status, and given the mentally instability of his wife, he would have done everything in his power to legalize his status for the sake of his children. He gambled, and he lost. Sadly, these innocent children also lose.
I think what the OP meant to say was that (SOME) illegals want to take their children home with them.
I am sure thats true.
Yes. A while back there was an article in the paper here about a mother in Juarez who had been deported and was fighting for custody of her 5 children all born in the USA. They were living in foster homes, the oldest child apparently wanted to remain in the foster home but the mother got the others back and was working to support them in her own country.
I don't think that the government should deny parents their children - imagine Americans living in some other country having children taken from them just for coming back to their own country?
In this case, if the mother is mentally ill, very likely the father is also mentally ill. And it doesn't seem that she's in any position to start sponsoring a series of immigrants, she can't support herself much less him.
I think the children would be better off in Mexico if he's more mentally stable than she.

I totally agree. And, if he truly loves his children, he will never stop fighting to have them reunited with him in Mexico. This is something La Raza, et al. should champion, since they claim to be advocates for Hispanic "immigrants." Rather than trying to guilt this country into allowing illegals to remain here with their children, they should be working on strategies for family reunification in their homelands. If family reunification is actually their goal, it shouldn't matter where they live, as long as they're together. But, they seem to believe families should only remain intact within the borders of the USA. I wonder why.
