Remember the MVM offices in Phoenix that were holding children who were taken from their parents at the border? One child named Wilson, who was just 6 years old when he spent two nights there, shared his startling recollection with me:https://www.revealnews.org/episodes/when-they-took-my-son/ …

But they struggle to make ends meet. Wilson joined Cub Scouts but can’t even afford his uniform. Despite humanitarian parole, Tonita isn’t authorized to work. She heard of a program that could help them with food and counseling. But she’s terrified of becoming a “public charge.”pic.twitter.com/N03O6cg0Zl

Before mamá and son were reunited, their family was asked to build a new bedroom for Wilson. They had to spend $3k to do that alone. This family already struggled to keep the lights on. They’ve started a fundraiser to help keep their family together:https://www.gofundme.com/keeping-our-family-togather …

Don't break the law. We don't know the mother or the 6 year old crossing the border illegally we have to be careful who justs walks into our country. It's sad but it's no ones fault but the mother's. Should teach our kids it's illegal to cross a border without permission.
