Anchor Babies in the 14th Amendment

In the article, 'Anchor Babies': No Getting Around the Constitution By Reynolds Holding, argues about illegal immigrants babies', being born in the U.S should be allowed to follow under the 14 Amendment. The 14th Amendment states that babies that are born in the U.S., but belong to illegal parents, have the right of automatic citizenship. Only 30 nations allow automatic citizenship to the children of undocumented parents, not even half of the world. Holding writes, "Britain began saying in 1981 that people born in America could not automatically become citizens unless at least one parent was already a citizen or permanent resident." This is saying that in 1981 Britain thought that the 14th Amendment was different, in order for a child to become citizen of the US, one of the parents had to be a resident or a US citizen. According to the 14th Amendment, was intended to grant citizenship to and protect the civil liberties of newly freed slaves, once you are born in the US you automatically a citizen to the United States.

My thoughts and believes are for the 14th Amendment, i believe that babies should have the right to citizenship as soon as they are born in the United States. I come from a family that crossed to the United States illegally, i have two sisters that were born here and are citizens. We love them, we do not see them as anchor babies because we don't use them to support our family and get documents out of them. When my sisters were in the belly of my mother, they didn't ask to be a citizen, the United States gave them that right because its part of the amendment. Every country should have the right to give U.S. born babies' a citizenship.
