Your own citations proved you were wrong. The only trash I’m dealing with is responding to that which you post.
These kids sound fine to me… /sarcasm…
They are saying that kids with separation anxiety disorder are at risk of future problems.
Separation anxiety is normal in very young children (those between 8 and 14 months old). Kids often go through a phase when they are “clingy” and afraid of unfamiliar people and places. When this fear occurs in a child over age 6 years, is excessive, and lasts longer than four weeks, the child may have separation anxiety disorder.
Separation anxiety disorder is a condition in which a child becomes fearful and nervous when away from home or separated from a loved one – usually a parent or other caregiver – to whom the child is attached. Some children also develop physical symptoms, such as headaches or stomachaches, at the thought of being separated. The fear of separation causes great distress to the child and may interfere with the child’s normal activities, such as going to school or playing with other children.
Simply being separated from your parents does not cause Separation Anxiety Disorder.
In many cases SAD is worst among children who are abused by their parents.
It would be ever so helpful if you at least had a basic understanding of the subject matter before pontificating.
Ever the expert… Would you care to arrange a debate with the head of the American Academy of Pediatrics or the American College of Physicians or the American Psychiatric Association? I’m sure they would love to hear your insights into this subject as they have overwhelmingly condemned this practice. Perhaps they are not as knowledgeable on the subject and you could teach them a thing or two…

majority of health professional who spend decades studying this subject have said it bad they have publicly said this practice will cause trauma.
If you think you can debate the facts get right after it.
If you think you can debate the facts get right after it. Give it your best effort.
Yet nothing any of you can produce actually supports such a claim.
FACT: The head of the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American College of Physicians and the American Psychiatric Association have all CONDEMNED this practice as harmful to children. Let’s hear your credentials on this…

Fact, none of them can show where separation alone absent other factors causes any long term harm to the kids.
I will take the head of AAP over your opinion on what will harm children.
Let me guess, you practice pediatric psychiatry, global warming science, constitutional law and a myriad other subjects… LMAO… I gotta hand it to you, it’s a pretty good act… Not as good as Trump’s, but it’s not bad at all…

And yet neither of you can cite a single fact to support your argument. Instead you want to attack me personally for pointing it out.
You have nothing of value to offer in any discussion which is why resort to this.
and the only reason Trump is doing this is because Congress wont fund his wall.
The parents are dragging these kids to the border with them to circumvent US law and get to stay in the country.
If we allow it, we will be completely overrun with illegals dragging kids to the border with them parents or not.
doesn’t change the fact your using children as political hostages.
■■■■■■■■■ that’s exactly what their parents and your fellow travelers in the Democratic party have been doing for years.
