    It's no secret that separating children from loving parents or guardians and putting them in institutions makes them vulnerable to physical and sexual abuse—let alone the psychological trauma of separation. Worse, most of these kids were already escaping terrible circumstances.https://twitter.com/CNN/status/1025465347988758528 …

        There are many wonderful, caring adults who work in institutional settings or act as foster parents to children in crisis. It still should be an act of last resort to separate children from parents/loving guardians. So much existing history and examples here. We know this. 😰

        I'm sorry that your heart is so stone cold that you'd think it's okay to hurt little children because of what you think of their parent's actions. I feel very sorry for whatever made you so heartless.
