  • the International Society for Social Pediatrics & Child Health (ISSOP)—jointly with other national and international pediatric and child health organizations—calls on the United States to stop the barbaric abuse of children at the US‐Mexican border.  The separation of children from their parents, the abuse of their human rights, and the disregard for every moral and ethical standard for the treatment of children is an affront to all who respect and value the well‐being of children and youth. It reflects a gross disdain on the part of the US for the traumatic impact and irreparable harm these acts will have on their physical, mental and social health—throughout their lives.
