Highlights Magazine for kids has issued a powerful statement denouncing family separation and pleading for 'human decency'.
, a magazine most of us probably grew up devouring whenever it arrived in the mail, has made a passionate statement denouncing the conditions migrant kids are being housed in, and a plea against families being separated in the first place.
Kent explains that Highlights’ core belief is that “Children are the world’s most important people” and emphasizes that they hold this belief about “ALL children.” Kent says this statement isn’t a political one, but a question of “human decency, plain and simple.” He calls it “a plea for recognition that these are not simply the children of strangers for whom others are accountable. This is an appeal to elevate the inalienable right of all children to feel safe and to have the opportunity to become their best selves.”
