This is why Pres Obama and VP Biden are working so hard on Sensible Immigration Reform even though not many seem to be interested right now. These People are definitely interested..

"It’s clear, however, that a disturbing number of children are separated from their families for significant stretches of time, and some permanently. A Colorlines.com investigation released in November 2011 estimated that there were at least 5,100 children in foster care who faced significant barriers to reunifying with their detained and deported parents. We projected that if deportation and child welfare policies remained unchanged, another 15,000 kids could face a similar fate over the three years between 2012 and 2014."

Imagine if we were in their place~
