Your kid will suffer either way. I hope you’re happy.

I missed the part where that's my problem.

My kid certainly isn't suffering because some teen is sad their parents screwed up.

Stop making stories up.

Not made up. I was with some people last night who work in FCPS high schools and this is what they are seeing and hearing. There are a lot of kids in crisis for various reasons, and now here’s a new one.

I missed the part where they’re going to hire more people to work with your kid so they can give time and attention to all students. MAGA are going to get a nice little lesson in unintended consequences in so many different ways these next few years.

And, a part of this current trauma is fear mongering and not based on reality.

So which is it? You want them and/or their parents deported or not? Sounds like you do. But now you’re telling them don’t worry? Own your role in creating trauma for children.

This. Trump rescinded a Biden EO, so the policy returned to a pre-Biden status. This panic did not exist pre-Biden, and it should not exist now. People are creating this fear in children.

Yes, we know you are a heartless moron. You voted for Trump.

But you’re also pro-life, right? Right?????? Or does that only go as far as my vagina and uterus. Once the kid is here then you don’t give a shit?

"To be clear, Fairfax County Public Schools is not permitted by law to collect the immigration status of our students or their families."

Fairfax County, FCPS, general public know the numbers on unaccompanied minors released to sponsers. That number results in FCPS legislative package on p 22 pdf https://www.fcps.edu/sites/default/files/media/pdf/2025-FCSB-Legislative-Program-ADOPTED.pdf:

"24) The FCSB supports additional federal funding aid to help address the needs of unaccompanied
children who have been relocated to Fairfax County through the federal Department of Health
and Human Services, Office of Refugee Resettlement."

Impact on facilities - capacity and staffing? FCPS program budget is surprising. https://www.fcps.edu/sites/default/files/media/pdf/FY-2024-Program-Budget.pdf
P 142 is Tirle 1- 100% offsetting grant revenue 30,566.5 m and 20% goes to non school based?

There have been a steady stream of kids showing up from the border over the last 4 years. They've been taking up time and resources from American kids for a long time. There is no way they're walking here from Central America and other far flung places without experiencing and seeing significant trauma along the way. Especially for the girls. All of this requires support.

Last I heard Fairfax county public School are a school not a meals, daycare or counseling service. The perversion of it into some social program has caused the core mission to be out on the back burner to advanced liberal social agendas.

Sadly, allegedly, there are also kids reporting to their teachers that they will kill themselves if others don’t accept their gender identities, or because this or the other. Unfortunately, kids face all kinds of issues, challenges, and traumas. That has always existed. What is new as of recently, however, is the perspective some kids have in life. They seem to have been robed of any sense of hope, self-worth, true identity, and resilience.

The pain these kids who fear deportation along with their parents is very real, but so is their reality. As for the alleged teachers and counselors at FCPS, besides perpetuating on the feeling of hopelessness and helplessness, this is the time to rise above that and besides lending an ear, a word of comfort, etc., they will have to talk to these students about resilience, strength, the future, their self-worth independent from their geographic location, or color of their skin, or gender. These kids need to hear that things will work out fine in the end, though it may not seem like it at this moment. That adversity through resilience can become growth. That they have their entire future ahead of them. A good starting point would be using role models of people who have risen through the worst of adversity and yet not only survive, but excelled. There are many examples, but the most recent one that comes to mind is JD Vance. Of course there are others, such as Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, or the many women in Latin America who became presidents of their countries 14 times altogether!

While we can’t change reality for these kids -or any other kid- we, as adults, can role model how to cope and make the best out of things we can’t change.

this is a perfect example of the lack of compassion which is why we are in this Trump mess now.

This is one of the many reasons that I quit working in FCPS.

FCPS has lost their collective minds and way and need to decide if their mission is to educate students or become a social service umbrella agency.

This is why I’m leaving. The mission has become unattainable.
