      Yeah there’s all sorts of situation ls where someone might try ro get there kid here. It’s sad bit largely a failure of actions and policies we have had in the region. It doesn’t matter if their parents were with them, left behind or waiting for the kid at the destination. All that matters is that there’s a kid dead in a inhumane death trap that should never have been built. Biden should mobilize the national guard and have it removed since abbot isn’t gonna do it.

          That’s not a helpful statement, just a deflection to a legitimate question. Where are the parents and why are they not here also making the crossing

            There are all sorts of reasons unaccompanied minors attempt this journey; information about this is widely available if you read. It’s clear the original question here was intended to try to find a reason to blame the victim and their family rather than the actual cause of their death
