Leave it up to the parent.
Tell them they are leaving. They can choose to take the child with them or not. Make the decision and then document the decision. Done. |
Stop conflating immigration with crimes of violence. They are not the same. Theres also no evidence provided by the government about their gang involvement nad they gave pretty specific accusations so they should be able to back it up. |
1. Men who need money to support a family 2. Men who would be targeted by criminals in their home country I work in an immigration-adjacent space. I’ve visited shelters and aid orgs at our southern border (multiple times, various locations) as part of my day job. And I’ve participated in countless interdisciplinary trainings. Fwiw, a real world situation I observed in real time at the border was eye opening in terms of the Sophie’s Choice-esque dilemma. While shadowing an immigration lawyer talking to a young woman who was lucky enough to give birth here within 48 hours of entering the country, it was clear that the woman loved the baby daddy who crossed with her but was sitting in detention and likely to be fast-tracked for deportation…but once she was given the option to go back with him or stay, she barely hesitated. She said she planned to stay since her baby would have citizenship. She wanted guidance on how to navigate the system legally to best position herself for help and a shot at potentially helping the baby daddy join them later. There was zero chance he would ever be allowed here legally (and this was years ago under a different president). Even when she heard that, she still wanted to stay. Can’t say I really blame her. |
