| If you are a naturalized American citizen and your child is an American citizen who was born in the US and if you or your child are not white, would you ask your child to carry a photocopy of their passport to school? What is everyone else doing? |

Like a student ID?
I needed that in 1998. |
| Should always carry it on their person (similar to a dog tag) so they can be identified after a school shooting. |
|
EVERYONE should probably be carrying proof of identity now. ICE and this administration are not to be trusted.
It's like Soviet-style "your papers, please" crap out there. Or worse yet, just grab people and refuse to acknowledge their identity docs. |
Yes we are going back. |
+1 If your child's school or school system has no student ID protocols, you need to move. |
| If you want to inflict emotional trauma on your child and tell them falsehoods about how the police are looking to pinch non-white children from the playground, to ahead. I think that's psychopathic and emotionally abusive parenting but it's technically legal. |
| My daughter has a copy of her passport with her. Our family is naturalized and not white. |
Are you in pretty deep denial? |
Children aren't getting plucked away from playgrounds and you're correct about such hysteria being too much but there have been some unnecessary farm raids. In any event, this Trump/Biden Immigration mess we've gotten into is annoying. |
This is so disingenuous. Your student ID in 1998 showed you were a US Citizen? Really? |
No one is asking children for proof of their citizenship. If they do, let us know who and where and we'll make sure it never happens again. You can't and won't because it isn't happening. |
There are legitimate criticisms about the ICE raids. But this is absolutely too much. Kids just went through enough with covid and now people are doing the same mentally damaging crap to their kids about ICE. |
You must have been a hoot during covid. "No, Larla, grandma can't come over for Christmas dinner. It might kill her, or all of us." |
Agree. We all need to get a grip and do better, together. |
