Question

Even though laws were in place to keep children with their parents, separation of families still happened anyway.

true or false

Answer 1

True. Despite laws intended to protect family unity, there have been numerous instances throughout history where families have been separated, often due to systemic issues, enforcement practices, or changes in policy. Examples include the forced removal of Indigenous children from their families in various countries, immigration policies that result in the separation of families at borders, and certain child welfare practices.
