The children didn't choose to come over but when they reach the age that they know they are in the country illegally and they choose to stay anyway, they are breaking the law too.It is also a flawed system that turns a blind eye to illegal immigration to the point that kids can grow up to adulthood in a country where they and their parents have no status.If the government decide to give amnesty to everybody who was brought in by their parents as a minor, you'd just see even more illegals coming in because they all want to give their kids PR or citizenship in the US and of course later the kids can sponsor them to become legal too.Instead of giving amnesty to illegals, the government should be tougher on illegals and especially people who hire illegals and at the same time make legal immigration easier. Legal immigrants don't get to come in until they've had their background checks. Illegals, you don't know because they never have any background checks and they already started out by breaking the law.
