There is no excuse, no reason, no anything for deporting children from countries that are not from Mexico. USA has an agreement with Mexico for MEXICAN children who are not with parents, but how can anyone ever be OK with children from another country simply being dumped without any family or support system like this.
How has the USA become so callous, so depraved, so unemphatic that this is official government policy now?
There are not our children, not our responsiblity.
America is NOT the world's daycare or homeless shelter.
We should never tolerate other nations dumping their unwanted kids or people on our border.
America should airdrop birth control pills over central America or something. This is ridiculous!

They're not Mexico's children either - do you realize that?
How did they get here, if not with adults? People are right now squawking about how horrible we are over the 500+ children we have currently whose parents can’t be found, or better yet, who won’t take the kids back. They should have never come.

Let me help. Find a map of the world. Open it. Locate Mexico. Locate the US. Locate any South or Central American countries, other than Mexico, that share land borders with the US (this is a trick question, since there are none). Now, this next part may be hard, so proceed cautiously. Trace a land route from any South or Central American country, other than Mexico, to the United States. What do they have in common? Answer: they all pass through Mexico. As such, it's clear that Mexico is allowing illegal children to cross the US border. In fact, said children crossed the entirety of Mexico and weren't stopped. Is that clear enough for you?
"Children from Central America are being sent across the border to Mexico, where they may not have any family. "
Soo,...they crossed through Mexico from Central America to enter illegally. And we sent them back into Mexico, the place where they last entered.
I remember back during the Caravan craze those Central American Countries actually bused their migrants back home from Mexico. They need to offer that service for their citizens again.
They're not Mexico's children either - do you realize that?
Why do we have to be stuck with them? But that aside, I’m sorry, but they are much better off in a country whose culture is more similar to their own and that speaks their language.
