Today, people spoke about immigration and the way it impacts the children’s
lives. I never knew that most of the illegal immigrants we have in our country
are here because of their parents and technically grew up here because they
immigrated when they were children. One lady spoke about that fact that,
very serious situations drive people to move across the country.
I
asked the panel a question regarding how the much the U.S citizen lifestyle
differs from a Mexico citizen lifestyle. A woman who was actually born in
Mexico explained that even though undocumented people in the U.S don’t make
much, and settle for less, they still make more then they would living in
Mexico. The U.S has more support services for people who need things such as
free lunch, health care, food, housing etc. and Mexico has little to none.
This
information on immigration and education will impact me in a way that will
better myself as a teacher. I can help people even more than I ever expected.
Today really supported my statement of building bonds with your students. If
you have a student who’s family isn’t making much because companies are taking
advantage of the fact that they are illegal and they began to cheat them out of
their money, you can help them out in many ways. The stories of undocumented
people are more serious then I thought they were and it will seriously make my
job more challenging but will help people’s lives.
