Central American migrant parents deported by the United States are demanding asylum and to be reunited with the children from whom they were separated.
The parents who were forcibly sent back to Central America after illegally crossing into the U.S. last year with their children are asking American authorities to allow them to rejoin their kids.
The 29 parents sought asylum this past month, getting help from immigration lawyers, religious leaders, and aid groups, according to NBC News.
One Guatemalan man who says he was separated from his child waited seven hours on Saturday for information from U.S. immigration officials.
‘Time doesn’t matter,’ the man said. ‘Our love for our child has no price.’
Central American migrants at the Mexicali border crossing react as they wait to enter the U.S., asking for refuge and to be reunited with their children. They were separated from them by immigration authorities when crossing into the United States illegally last year

The youngest child is five years of age. A number of parents have been separated from their children for nearly a year.
Aid groups said the longest separation is 14 months.
Immigration advocacy organizations said that a few of the children are in detention centers, while others have been sent either to relatives or foster families.
The parents presented themselves at the port of entry in Mexicali, Mexico and asked for asylum, but U.S. border agents told them they had reached capacity and could not allow them to enter the country.
‘The CBP says they're at capacity,’ Sandra Cordero, director of Families Belong Together, said.

The Trump administration may have separated 'thousands' more immigrant children from their parents than previously known but inadequate record-keeping means the exact number is still unclear, an internal watchdog said in January
‘But they're not giving us information on what that capacity is. We're staying.’
Later in the day, however, Customs and Border Protection began to process the parents’ asylum claims five at a time.
The Trump administration may have separated 'thousands' more immigrant children from their parents than previously known but inadequate record-keeping means the exact number is still unclear, an internal watchdog said in January.
The Office of Inspector General at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) said the agency had identified many more children in addition to the 2,737 that were included as part of a class action lawsuit challenging the separations brought by the American Civil Liberties Union last year.
The administration implemented a 'zero tolerance' policy to criminally prosecute and jail all illegal border crossers even those traveling with their children, leading to a wave of separations last year.
But the auditor said in a report that prior to the officially announced policy the government had ramped up separations for other reasons related to a child's safety and well-being, including separating parents with criminal records or lack of proper documents.
Those separations were only tracked informally, making it impossible for the auditor to know the exact number.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
