They can just take their kids with them. Wouldnt that make more sense than abandonment?

Most of the kids are US citizens, so it makes more sense for them to stay here than to return to a country they've never before seen. Except instead of having parents who are sometimes overwhelmed by working three jobs at the chicken plant, now these kids will have no parents and be left with neighbors and relatives. Even if your only metric is how this impacts schools, it's still bad because those kids are still here but they are just unparented.

I'm not the poster you quoted.

Why would that make more sense? US citizen children move to countries "they've never before seen" all the time when their parents move for jobs. Their parents are with them.

Is this the choice you’d make for your own kids if it meant moving them to a country where their life/safety was threatened? I’ve seen the lengths DCUM parents will go to just to give their kids a leg up on college admission or a travel team. You really have no clue what life is like for others and zero compassion.

Yeah, think about those pictures of parents handing babies away to try to get them to safety when Saigon fell or Kabul. Or the kindertransport. People will turn their kids over to CPS before taking them back to some of these countries.

The idea of raiding churches instead of raiding busienesses is so perverse. So Tyson chicken can continue to employe all the undocumented workers it needs, but if they dare leave their house to go to church or school, ICE may catch them. They should mandate e verify and catch all these employers that are employing undocumented workers illegally. Then punish the employers, not the people being exploited.

Are you compassionate enough to send your kids to the heavily impacted schools?

The bigger problem is that the world has an endless supply of poor people that would like to be here. We can't take them all. Better for those places to be start changing. I know, that is hard, but it is the only long term solution.

My kids went/go to school with lots of ESL kids. They took/take AAP/honors classes and eventually will take IB classes. ESL learners are not in those classes but even outside of those classes, no my kids have not been impacted bc they are surrounded by kids who are academically inclined. They have had a few disruptive American kids in classes here and there throughout the years. I can’t tell if the parents yapping about the horrible illegals and their impact are a) parents whose kids are not actually in heavily impacted schools but think those schools are full of gang bangers OR b) parents with mediocre/average kids who rather blame immigrants than say, parenting for certain issues.

Well the first part of your post explains why you have no idea what you're talking about. The AAP kids go to school in a bubble that make it easy to not know what kids in non AAP classes have to deal with. Try not to comment on things that you have no experience with.

My jaw actually dropped at the utter cluelessness of the PP. JFC.

Can you explain to the clueless parents how the ESL kids are ruining it for your gen ed kids? I would think the behavioral issues not ESL issues would be more problematic like the PP teacher said.

You can't be serious - especially since there are behavioral issues among AAP kids, too, whether you admit it or not.

Obviously, ESL kids don't understand English. They cluster together in class and talk amongst themselves, distracting the other students and annoying the teacher, who is trying to teach. The teacher then has to spend extra time trying to make sure the ESL students understand what to do, help them with reading and writing, etc. They only work with an ESL teacher for about an hour a day. Their regular teacher is responsible for everything else. And while s/he is trying to help them, all the other students have to fend for themselves. I can't believe this actually has to be explained to you.

Trump never follows through. He will realize we need that labor so business can make money. He doesn’t have the man power to do round ups or deport these mass deportation he brags about. He will continue to deport criminals, if their countries will accept them back.
Let not forget Obama still deported more people than Trump. Biden is very close to Trump numbers https://www.migrationpolicy.org/article/biden-deportation-record

Summary of Deportations by President:
President Deportations (Approx.)
George H.W. Bush 1.3 million
Bill Clinton 12.5 million
George W. Bush 10.3 million
Barack Obama 3 million
Donald Trump 2.4 million
Joe Biden (2021-2024) Ongoing (approx. 1.2 million by 2024)

I’ll be surprised if deportations under Trump surpass Obama’s record. And who knew Clinton was deporter in chief. I predict something close to Biden’s numbers over the next four years. There are simply too many legal issues around deportations and Trump will be blocked.

The real solution is hiring more immigration judges for hearings. But people forget about that.

Under Clinton he increased the budget to do a mass hiring for Customs, Border patrol & INS. Most are now part of ICE & CBP.

I think Trump will deport the criminals who are here illegally but that will be it. Our economy would suffer big time without immigrants to do the jobs Americans won’t touch.

I had 2 deported last year and their parents were criminals. I was told they can never come back.

Yes, criminals were already being deported. The American people voted for a much larger effort to deport more illegal residents, and some support going after naturalized and birthright citizens too (if they agree with Stephen Miller). Whether or no Trump can find the billions of dollars necessary to do this and the competence (when he didn’t even build his wall last term) remains to be seen.

I recently looked up how much wall was built and the most factual answer seemed to be about 50 new miles and 450 renovated. After all that jawing.

Well, given that he was sued at every turn and was given no money, that was actually OK. And then, the government purchased wall materials with defense dollars and Biden left them to rust in big piles.

The trial for Trump’s former strategist is scheduled to start shortly after he is done serving a four-month federal prison term on contempt of Congress charges.

+1 They cannot speak a lick of English so after every instruction in the class, everyone has to stop and have a bilingual student translate to the kids what needs to be done. But of course the bilingual student doesn't understand the material herself yet either so for explaining actual subject content, the teacher has to take time away from other kids to try to get the message through. This has been happening for the last several years in my kids' classes.

One of the best parts of my job is not having to deal with the behaviors. I leave them behind in the gen ed classroom when I pull my ESOL students out.

Elementary or high school?

Every school is different. My elementary has had really tough group of 3-6 grades the last several years. And it’s exactly as described. The majority of the MLLs are not caring about school nor do their families and there are is a lot of trauma and behavior problems. And there might be 1 or 0 white kids in the class.

I teach team taught ESL classes in high school and I promise you the EL kids are NOT the behavior problems. They are hard working and polite. Honestly their biggest issue is spotty attendance - they tend to miss a lot of school which makes progress really hard. Behaviors tend to come from the Gen Ed kids or kids with IEPs for behaviors (Ed, OHI, etc)
