Children that are citizens have all the same rights granted by the Constitution that adults that are citizens are granted by the Constitution. Period. I've been unable to find anywhere that says, "under 18 must go!"

So, let me ask you this, what about a purely domestic case where the parent is taken out of the equation. Deportation, sudden death, imprisonment, abduction by aliens, whatEVER. What would you do with those children? Deport *them*? Why does the formerly present, but now absent, parent's status have fuck-all to do with whether or not this young American Citizen is permitted to stay in their country?

You're pretty clear on what the punishment should be here. What is the crime of the child?
