I really struggle to think that people could legit think stuff like this makes any sense. Telling most try solely argue how 'it's the law!' rather than on the supposed merits of it.

The mother is illegal. I certainly feel bad for the child being put through that shit, but should any mother get to come to any country, have a kid, and then be granted citizenship? Because if the kid is granted citizenship but not the mother, people would be crying that the child is being ripped from his mother if he alone was able to stay. Setting a precedent based on feeling for one sob story case is a very bad idea.
