No one forced foreign nationals to enter the US illegally. No one forced them to have children in the US. Having made those choices, it is not fair for those same foreign nationals to now expect the taxpayers of the country, the country they shouldn’t even be in, to shoulder the burden of raising their children.

I do not think it is unreasonable to expect parents to at least partially step-up to the plate for the benefit of their children by having gainful and legal employment.
Those parents, if they're working here, are almost surely working and paying taxes. You keep trying to push this "lazy" narrative, and this "nontaxpaying" narrative -- but illegals, millions of them, work at legal jobs, paying income taxes for benefits they cannot collect. Even if they only rent, they still pay property tax, because their landlord factors that into his rental fees.
What we're seeing here is your unsupported assumptions.
