These changes were influenced by the first Joint Chief Inspectors’ safeguarding report 2002 and formalised in the Every Child Matters legislation outlined in the Children Act 2004. By safeguarding a child or young person we ensure they get the very best of the opportunities available to them for them to achieve the best of their potential while keeping them safe from bullying, crime, accidents, neglect and abuse.

The authors explain more unaccompanied children are entering the United States over the years. From 2001-2006, CBP arrested 86,000 unaccompanied children (248). In 2008, the United States detained 7211 unaccompanied children, compared to 6741 in 2004 and 200 in 1999. Those who are not promptly deported wait to go to immigration court (248).

In the Unites States alone we have an estimate of 11 million unauthorized immigrants resided in the United States in 2014. According to the migration policy, there are more than 54 percent resided in four states: California (27 percent), Texas (13 percent), New York (8 percent) and Florida (6 percent). The number of illegal immigrants that migrant to this country is highly significant, as well as the number of children they have in out country. One of the legal ways for illegal immigrants to become residents of the country is to have children and wait to achieve there residence. However during the wait to achieve residence, they children take advantage many serves. Such as the schools and health care, simply because they have been born in America. The reality is that they come to this country to abuse out benefits. Taking up our resources and not improving their and our

The Department of Homeland Security is considering a proposal that would separate children from adults when the adults illegally try to enter the United States from the Southern border. The proposal is intended to deter adults from essentially kidnapping illegal immigrant children. It is also meant to deter adults from taking advantage of children by dangerously traveling with them or smuggling them into the United States in order to stay in the US. Some adults are claiming that the minor children they brought into the United States is their own child. Currently, when children are brought into the United States by an adult they are usually released, but they can stay in the US with family while their cases are pending disposition. The considered

Beginning in 2011, the United States has witnessed a massive influx in the numbers of unattended alien children arriving at the country’s southern borders. As thousands of children continued to arrive at the U.S. Border Patrol facilities, resources were quickly depleted, culminating in an immigration crisis with the arrival of over 60,000 children in 2014 (Chen & Gill, 2015). These children were coming mainly from Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador and the majority of the new arrivals were without parents or caretakers (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees [UNHCR], 2014).

Did you know there are 8,194,000 children in the United States with at least one immigrant parent? 8,194,000 children whose families are being threatened by the Trump administration's recent changes in immigration policies. Immigration reform has been a topic of controversy for decades. Most Americans blame Mexican immigrants for the United States economic problems and many believe undocumented immigration causes high crime rates. However recent studies have disproved that undocumented immigrants are a threat to American citizens. When people think of immigrants they think of an outdated caricature that doesn't truly represent all of the 11 million undocumented immigrants.

As said by the co-chair Representative Lucille Roybal-Allard of the Congressional Women’s Working Group on Immigration Reform, “I am deeply concerned about the Trump Administration’s immigration policies and actions… Sacrificing the well-being of children for any purpose is immoral and inhumane. It goes against the fundamental values of our nation and our legacy of treasuring and protecting children.” According to several academic studies, “A child’s risk of having mental health problems like depression, anxiety, and severe psychological distress increases following the detention and/or deportation of a parent. Children with undocumented family members live in fear that they will be taken away—circumstances that can lead to toxic stress which, according to the American Academy of Pediatrics, can harm brain development and negatively impact short- and long-term

The current solution American citizens have resulted to for riding the nation of undocumented immigrants is deportation, even if this means separating a family. This affliction happens all too often in America: a child is separated from his or her parents, sometimes lucky enough to have family members to look after them, and other times orphaned. 4.5 million American citizens have at least one undocumented parent according to estimates by the Pew Hispanic Center. And unfortunately, 438,421 deportations in the year 2013 alone left 5,100 children in foster care (Pew Hispanic Center).

Should children that commit adult crime be prosecuted? While some people believe children should be given second chances since they are young, others think children should be punished the same way adults are. Children should not be given advantages simply because they are young as they should know the difference between right and wrong. Since this is a frequently discussed idea in society, many authors deal with it in literature. This is the case in Lord of the Flies because crimes are committed by young children.

Though this issue has seen tremendous traction in the media this year, this has been a problem over the last several years. Before the spike in immigrants seen three years ago, the United States routinely apprehended between five and ten-thousand unaccompanied minors each year. In addition, before the spike, the minors predominately were Mexican, not Central American. With the spike, the demographics of the immigrants seemed to change overnight, and the numbers of immigrants from the Northern Triangle have far surpassed those coming from Mexico. Since 2011, the numbers of unaccompanied minors has doubled each year, from eight-thousand in 2011 to twenty in 2012, to near forty in 2013. For fiscal year 2014, the Customs and Border Patrol estimates that more than eighty-thousand minors will have been apprehended at the border. Further, they have published estimates that show they expect to see numbers in excess of two-hundred-thousand in fiscal year 2015.
