But in today's America, the US-born children of undocumented immigrants--over four million of them--do not enjoy fully the benefits of citizenship or of feeling that they belong. Children in mixed-status families are forgotten in the loud and discordant immigration debate. They live under the constant threat that their parents will suddenly be deported. Their parents face impossible decisions: make their children exiles or make them orphans. In Forgotten Citizens, Luis Zayas holds a mirror to a nation in crisis, providing invaluable perspectives for anyone brave enough to look. Zayas draws on his extensive work as a mental health clinician and researcher to present the most complete picture yet of how immigration policy subverts children's rights, harms their mental health, and leaves lasting psychological trauma. We meet Virginia, a kindergartener so terrified of revealing her family's status that she took her father's warning don't say anything so literally she hadn't spoken in school in over a year. We hear from Brandon, exiled with his family to Mexico, who worries that his father will die in the desert trying to immigrate again. Children like Virginia and Brandon have been silenced and their stories largely overlooked in the broader debates about immigration policy. As this book demonstrates, we can no longer afford to ignore them"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000718912 520__ $$a"In Forgotten Citizens, Luis Zayas draws on his extensive research and experience as a psychological evaluator to present the most complete picture yet of the mental health and lasting trauma experienced by US citizen-children who are threatened with the fate of exile or orphan"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000718912 650_0 $$aChildren of illegal aliens$$zUnited States. 000718912 650_0 $$aChildren of illegal aliens$$xLaw and legislation$$zUnited States. 000718912 650_0 $$aIllegal alien children$$xGovernment policy$$zUnited States. 000718912 650_0 $$aIllegal aliens$$zUnited States. 000718912 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xEmigration and immigration$$xSocial aspects. 000718912 85200 $$bgen$$hJV6483$$i.Z39$$i2015 000718912 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:718912$$pGLOBAL_SET 000718912 980__ $$aBIB 000718912 980__ $$aBOOK
