Aren't illegal immigrants parents, too?

I find this blog very interesting because not only does it give helpful tips or updates you with entertainment news but also it addresses important issues. This blog adds fun but at the same time discusses important things that are happening around the world. It makes it worthy of note because it is not a crazy blog where you find things that are dumb and make no sense. This blog is more realistic in the way it covers topics that parents like myself can find both helpful, interesting, and enjoyable.
For example this blog serves to see what people have to say about the situation of a mother who was deported to El Salvador leaving behind her children with their father. Not only does this blog present injustice but also the problems America is having with immigration. Immigration is a very important issue right now, especially in the presidential elections. Some politics are still fighting for immigration while others are still against it.
This blog does a good job about finding a story that deals with parenthood but at the same time one that deals with one of the major problems illegal immigrants are facing today. Immigration has been an ongoing battle and we have seen this in the news. Illegal immigrants are still being deported no matter what their situation is and many have been the cases where mothers or fathers end up leaving their children behind.
I think it is really unfair because if they already have a family here why should they be deported. They are people who are responsible working to give a better life to their family and while they are doing that they are helping out the United States’ economy. I could see the case of an illegal immigrant being deported because he/she is a criminal and is causing problems to the United States but most of these people are just hard workers.

I couldn't agree more with your blog. If illegal immigrants are so "bad" then why aren't there more problems when they come to the U.S. I had no idea that parents were actually seperated from their children, but I guess it's just another way that the media filters what people hear and see. Good Entry!
I think you did a good job of briefly summarizing the blog and then going into a bit more depth to explain your stance on the issue and some of the underlying problems involved. You read the blog because it pertains to you personally but then open it up to the fact many other people can relate as well. You express this cearly and boldly.
Good post. Your description was well-crafted and you did a good job of applying the topic to an external audience.
You need more internal voice. Your identity in this situation is quite important and you need to describe where you're coming from. Blogging is about context and your experiences greatly inform your readers about how your words should be taken.
Good first post.
