Question 5

Pyke uses a quote from undocumented mother Janet Godinez to emphasize what unintended consequence of preparing children for familial deportation?&#10;A) a shared fear of deportation&#10;B) emotional bonding between parents and children&#10;C) greater endorsement of gender stereotypes&#10;D) inability to provide financially

Accepted Answer

Pyke quotes Janet Godinez saying, "The hardest thing is seeing your own child afraid and with the same fear as you." This suggests that preparing children for deportation increases their fear and anxiety about the possibility, creating a shared fear between parents and children.

Question 6

What is one effect of gender roles on the experience of undocumented parents, according to Enriquez?&#10;A) Mothers mostly feel limited by their status when attempting to obtain services for their children, whereas men feel unable to provide financial stability.&#10;B) Mothers are more likely to be criminalized than undocumented fathers.&#10;C) Mothers are more likely to suffer because of their lack of social networks in the United States compared to fathers.&#10;D) Fathers are more likely to obtain citizenship through employers than mothers.

Accepted Answer

Enriquez's research highlights how gender roles impact undocumented parents differently, with mothers feeling constrained in accessing services for their children due to their undocumented status, while fathers feel a sense of failure in not being able to provide financial stability for their families. This reflects the traditional gender roles of caregiver and breadwinner, respectively, and how these roles are complicated by undocumented status.

Accepted Answer

Undocumented immigrants often try to avoid racial profiling by changing their appearances and driving newer cars.

Other strategies, such as driving during rush hour and applying bumper stickers supporting immigration laws, are less effective at protecting their children.
