We had an emergency, and it was very important to send a message to families in Central America, 'Do not let your children take this very dangerous journey' because a lot of children did not make it, they were robbed, they were raped, they were kidnapped, they were held for ransom by smugglers. So I think it was the responsible message, that I and many others, including the White House, was trying to say to families, 'Do not let your children, your young children do this.'.
