Research Project Why We Should Educate Children of Illegal Immigrants There are many people in the United States who disagree against the law to educate children of illegal immigrants due to the high expenses spend annually and while it is coming from the taxes paid by the citizens. I concede that it may cost a fortune to educate those children of illegal immigrants by using our tax payments. However, I would argue that those children should have a right to be educated due to many reasons; they can contribute to the society, keep peace within the community, and increase growth of the economy. One of the points how children of illegal immigrants can be supportive for the society is by staying away from gangs’ organization when they are kept in school. As Clark Kirby, a Texas State Director in “Educating Illegal Aliens in Texas” points out, there are many arguments between those Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court if children of illegal immigrants should have educational rights because it would cost up to $5,000 per year per student.
Considered by most to be the backbone of America, it is how we socially and culturally indoctrinate our offspring so they are able to become a functional member of society. A lack of a full family is often cited as the reason that children end up as criminals or delinquents. The notion of family being the birthplace of problems is not even something most people could find feasible, which is what makes Barbara Ehrenreicht's essay "Are Families Dangerous?" seem a bit out in left field to most readers. But upon closer inspection and reflection into ones own family life, and the lives of those around them, Ehrenreicht's essay begins to make a lot more sense.
For instance, illegal immigrants who don’t usually bring their children with them, and would normally have their children enrolled in American schools still pay education taxes, this keeps the economy going. Also, these immigrants fill low wage jobs. Another problem that
Assess the argument that state policy has largely failed to protect the institution of the family I think that state policy although appears to benefit people with families and their families; it is not always the case. An example of how state policy does not protect the institution is the Divorce Law Act. This act allows for a quicker, cheaper way of getting a divorce and allows divorce to be obtained much easier. This does not protect the institution of family because before this act came into place most people would try to work out the problems within their marriage because divorce was a long and expensive process. However, with the new act and its simplicity people are no longer trying to fix their marriages and are just getting divorced which leads to the breakdowns of many family units.
The Chicano community did not have many “successful” role models, except their parents who were exploited in their jobs for long hours and little pay. And, because the Barrios brought a sense of respect to the marginalized Chicanos, some youth became attracted to the barrios. If people feel they are achieving this toughness it helps their self-esteem because they feel as though they have no chance to make it in other areas of life such as school and work. Therefore, for many youths, this seemed more realistic than economic or scholastic success. Often parents needed to work excessive hours for little pay forcing a certain amount of neglect of their
Of the four girls in the story Clara and Elissa somehow managed to obtain a real social security number, but Marisela and Yadiara are good examples as to why undocumented students have to go through many challenges and unequally opportunities only to achieve their college dream. Ayala, 2 The majority of undocumented students are brought to the United States as child by their parents or relatives without the child’s authorization. Illegal parents are not to blame for the poverty that is happening in their country and many decide to migrate with their families to the United States to seek a better life for their children. According to the New
When living in a big city you barely have time or the money to spend for yourself especially if you’re a single parent. Being raised by a single mother there were a lot of things we didn’t have that the other kids had. Now I understand where all of the paycheck went to but if my mother had some money left over she would spend it on us. In other countries just having a house, a farm, and some livestock they considered that being rich but that doesn’t really have an impact here in the United States. Here you have to have some education and a good paying job and wear brand name clothes but there are some citizens who may look high class but they just dress well to make other people assume that they are.
In the United States, we are privileged enough to boast our freedom in being the land of the free. People travel to the US from several countries, but a particular country, which receives the most controversy, is Mexico. A vast majority of these immigrants come to the United States illegally, but come for work to provide for their family. The focus of this vulnerable population is on the men that are apart of the illegal immigration that come to the United States. This isn’t a topic that many would think as a potential vulnerable population, yet they are faced with many barriers on a daily basis.
For example there has been alot of people coming from Mexico, Cuba, France, and Canada because they want to come into the United States either for its freedom or better opportunity and sometimes even because of a better life style. Welfare fraud allows people to get it who does not need it or deserve it. You have illegals that get it and have not even paid into the system and that weakens it even more. There are people who need it and can not get it which some people make $1 or 2 too much to get any help but still they do not make enough to even pay bills. Those that do get it just barely get anything at all.
After setting out these laws, families still tried to avoid the law by bringing their children in with them to work. Although the companies were not paying the children themselves, they paid the families extra for the child’s labor. Poor families were willing to do anything to make an extra dollar to survive on. Unlike the children of today, during the early 1900’s the young kids had to grow up extremely fast. They were not able to play and be worry free like the children of today are.
