Yes I know were talking one super blinky room as opposed to hundreds of miles and different facilities but still it's a great point.
In our little one's journey of birthday parties her friends' parents try new things (we stuck with watersides) or just don't want to replicate what was done before and twice we had the misfortune of spending afternoons in a Chuck E. Cheese. ---Side note, google "Chuck E. Cheese fights" - they serve beer there and that ____ gets real---
They have a wristband and numerical hand stamping system that matches kids with their parent or whomever dropped them off. No match - the kids doesn't leave. We did see people drop their kids off and leave but hey they knew the kid couldn't leave until they came back. Don't get me started on the "salad bar".
Me: "Look at what we watch on PBS and National Geographic, people can track which eagle or tiger or penguin goes with another one"
Wife: "Exactly!!!"
There are lots of very professional people who could have put together some sort of system but Trump/Stephen Miller just did this on the fly. No plan. No planning.
As you can tell my wife is super fired up about this. Little one is at the grandparents so we can have these discussions.

(952 posts)Chuck E. ______ing Cheese's goal is not to separate parents from their children. Rather it is to separate parents from their money.

(45,269 posts)because they would have opposed the whole concept of sending kids hundreds of miles away to different facilities.
Why not keep them in the same town at least, if not the same facility?
The human trafficking excuse is completely bogus. It's like shooting minorities dead to prevent interracial rape. They're obsessed with the concept of brown or black people as dangerous criminals. As if there aren't homegrown whites involved or even in charge of many of the criminal activities.
