It seems shortsighted to dwell so much on whether families are kept together
Tell that to the toddler crying for its mommy.
My Spanish probably isn’t up to the job but it’s no easier to explain to a toddler why she was carried through the desert or why she can’t stay.
I think we should focus on addressing the overall problem because as it exists now millions of people are going to keep being hurt in ways large and small, even when you’re not seeing headlines.
I am not necessarily saying you are wrong, what I am saying that toddler crying for its Mommy, that matters. The overall problem matters too, but so does the toddler crying for its Mommy.
