[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The other piece of this is that there are a lot of “international” students who grew up here. They are international because their parents are h1b or green card holders. Really stressful to be deported to a country you don’t even really know for something silly.

I have an acquaintance who wants their senior kid to go to school very close to their home. I felt they were being overprotective but now I fully support that. To be deported for no reason at all is a real risk. [/quote]

They are still foreigners here.  Their parents should be more responsible with their life choices.  Flip the situation and put your family in a foreign country - there's always the option to come home.  Foreigners are guests here.[/quote]

I understand that. But an expired fishing license or fake id used to drink underage is not a danger to the US. Anyway, I won’t change your opinion and I’m not asking for real criminals to stay here. We live in an area with lots of immigrants and these kids look and act the same as their citizen counterparts. They all have to be so stressed. And honestly, 18
Year olds are not always the most mature - eg, will they start deporting people for speeding? It is all nuts. Don’t act like it isn’t. Keep thinking how different you are from the people being targeted now and don’t be surprised when someone in your family gets in trouble for something silly and targeted for who knows what reason.
