Intentionally, and unnecessarily causing emotional and psychological trauma to young children as a means to a political end amounts to child abuse, IMO.

I'm not sure I agree with that opinion.
You should know me well enough by now to know that I’m happy to be corrected on any factual errors that my positions are based upon. Were they not implementing a “zero tolerance” policy on everyone crossing the border, including migrants with children in tow? Were they not using cruelty as s deterrent?

She’s not saying it’s an opinion she’s saying it’s a fact. Seen as we have so many fact checkers around are we gonna actually validate that claim?
Lol, that’s what he was implying, Nap.
It is a demonstrable fact that taking young children away from their parents, and especially breastfed infants, is cruel to the children. Would anyone like to argue that unnecessarily harming children is not cruel? By all means, you have the floor.
