Why Must Read Nursing Ethics: Across the Curriculum and Into Practice?
This book is used as a text book for a BSN program. The author's personal politics should not be embedded in the context of such a book. The author insinuates that President Trump and his administration are responsible for inaccurate or incomplete information regarding immigrant children. Children entering our country illegally is a major problem. It is a complex issue that can not be corrected simply by saying they should stay with their parents or let's build them shelters. Many, many of these children are being trafficked. Many, many of these supposed "parents" are not parents and are part of an even larger issue. I wish the world was filled with rainbows and butterflies and we could simply say, "yes, all please cross our borders and we will take care of you!" Look at the disaster at the border now! Our country is in danger and that means our children and immigrant children are in ever greater danger! Pat answers and finger pointing are not solutions. I am extremely dismayed that this diatribe made it into our textbook.
