Contrary to the sentiments others have expressed here so far ... I make no apologies for feeling heart sorry for this family.
Those of you who know me through my writings over the years, will be aware I've been dead against the downright unfairness of the Minimum Income Requirement set by this Government ever since the was first mooted.
What I do find strange, on the other hand ... ... is the fact that an experienced College Lecturer would earn less than £18,600 p.a.
seems rather odd!

Am on your side with this one Arthur I also feel their pain; also bigmac, the child would not be deported as it is not allowed but its up to the parents themselves to how best to deal with this situation and as the father is now working then for the short term a little holiday back to the USA would be the best solution for them.
BTW Shift out the s...e Mrs May and leave the good guys alone...

I'm dead against the Great British taxpayer having the pee taken out of us. How would you like to contribute on your next neighbour's Bentley hire purchase agreement while you've cut your cloth, living within your means, making do with a Jaguar.
You wanna a Bentley then have the means to own one b4 u take on the agreement. Quite simple, really

'fraid the is already being extracted from the Great British taxpayer (has been for yonks!) by the assorted "ne'er do wells" our spineless political masters allow to stay here ... as referred to in Joe's link ... I suggest you !
Frankly, I fail to see the analogy between two top of the range cars and [wilfully] splitting up families.
100% with Mark's statement in #9, viz:-
"Shift out the sh1t and leave ordinary, decent, law-abiding folk to get on with their lives in peace", needs to be the message conveyed in no uncertain terms to our illustrious Home Secretary.

... not to me, it isn't, I'm afraid.
C'mon, mate ... after all this time, you surely know me better than that ... I have no objections to taking its share of refugees from war~torn nations - within reason!
What I don't want is the criminal riff~raff ... the [seemingly] constant influx of Middle Eastern [so-called "religious"] extremists - who are hell~bent on causing mayhem - infiltrating our shores ... attempting to sweep aside our centuries-old traditions by demanding WE accept theirs ... or else ... !

When I was last earning 18k back in the late 80s I cld hardly afford a holiday for 2 adults and 2 kids to the Canaries.
Seemingly now, some folks can take hols to the Philippines earning way less than 18k, get themselves loved up and married, to boot.
All the while, presumably in receipt of taxpayers handouts to keep their heads above water.
No offence meant to anybody. ..it's just an observation
