    When your non-citizen family members go … I’m losing a school kid next week. I think her mom is scared so she’s going home. Kid is non-verbal, non-ambulatory, super sweet and doing well at school. What will her life look like in Venezuela? Dad is staying, but he can’t work and take care of the kiddo.

      Didn’t they understand that risk when they entered the country illegally? I mean I know they are in a desperate situation, but if I was fleeing to Canada and then I get kicked out because I’m there illegally what right do I have to complain?

        Mom’s visa is about to expire. She doesn’t think they’ll renew it and she’s afraid to try.
