When a child is born by either one or both of their parents being undocumented the parent/parents can be deported and the child might go along with them, stay with legal family members, or the government takes the child. Many of the parents that are stopped my police officers and are taken into custody often do not get to choose what happens with the child/children. If a legal family member is not contacted then the child/children are taken into foster care. Taken a kid to a foster home cost money to the government (tax payers). At times the parents get to decide if the children go along with them back to the parent’s country or if the child stays here in America. If an undocumented parent gets deported and they take the kid along with them, that child will become illegal in the parents country because they are American citizen. Therefore when the United States deports parents living in the U.S. illegally and the parents take the children along the government is not only deporting undocumented immigrants but American citizens
