Kids on the Borderline: Unaccompanied Minors, Due Process, and the U.S. Immigration Dilemma is a searing, evidence-based examination of one of the most urgent human rights issues in modern America: the treatment of children who arrive at the U.S. border without a parent or guardian.

Through composite case studies of Ana, Mateo, Leyla, Darius, and Sofia, the book explores what happens when minors are forced to navigate the immigration system alone—without legal counsel, translators, or emotional support. Drawing from verified public data, peer-reviewed research, government reports, and real-world advocacy, author Dr. Nicholas J. Pirro weaves a compelling narrative that bridges scholarship with activism.

This work includes:

  • A thorough review of U.S. immigration policy affecting children (2000–2025)

  • Scholarly citations and a full APA reference list

  • Actionable advocacy templates, phone numbers, and petition links

  • Appendices explaining terms, common questions, and practical steps for readers to engage

Written with the precision of academic inquiry and the heart of a child advocate, Kids on the Borderline challenges readers to look beyond headlines and into the courtrooms, shelters, and lives of children too often forgotten.

Ideal for educators, policymakers, researchers, legal professionals, and anyone who believes justice should be accessible to all—even the youngest among us.
