The children who have been detained in appalling conditions at the border could bear scars from the experience for life, experts say
Almost everyone I know from my childhood has suffered experiences that have 'scarred' them for life, myself included. If being detained at the border in "appalling" conditions (no toothbrush or soap) is the worst 'scars' these kids face I envy them.
Also they're trying to enter a country where much of the population suffers from some mental or emotional problem, so they'll fit right in.
I'm sure that many of these kids faced worse conditions in their home country and on their journey to get here.
Kids are resilient. They'll do just fine.
I did.
