More unaccompanied children showing up at Tijuana shelters

SAN DIEGO (Border Report) — Shelters in Tijuana have seen an uptick in the number of unaccompanied minors coming into their facilities in recent months.

Migrant advocates say this is due in part to many children showing up at the border hoping to get into the U.S., and when they’re unsuccessful, they end up in a shelter.

Enrique Lucero, director of the Migrant Affairs Office in Tijuana, says parents are also sending their children to the border ahead of themselves, hoping to reunite at some point in the future.

He says the opposite is also taking place.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address
