Children Choosing Not What Game to Play But If to Go Into Foster Care

An entire generation of children of immigrants, mostly Latino children, are being forced to make a decision if they should go to a country they no nothing of or enter a system that has proven itself a dangerous track for children, the foster care children.

Is this the new tracking system for children of color? How are children expected to learn ABC’s when they have the fear of being separated from their parents? How are children expected to be good citizens of a country that saw their right to grow up in a family as meaningless? What civic lesson is the U.S. government teaching these young people?
