The assertion/allegation on Monday, December 24, 2018 is that "14,600 unaccompanied migrant children are being held in custody."
Separated from anyone who loves them or knows them or cares about them.
It would be horrific if that were true about ONE CHILD. But 14,600? That is mind-boggling and difficult to comprehend. One cannot help but wonder how would his/her child feel in such a circumstance and how frantic and desperate would the parents be whose children were in a foreign country elsewhere for an unknown amount of time being "cared for" by unknown people following unknown guidelines? Sometimes thinking upon such things is not advised. How can you not? I dunno. I can't not.
