Hannah Dreyer is a reporter at the Washington Post.

She likes to look at the vast and tangled immigration infrastructure we've built in this country

from a very particular point of view. I noticed something about your reporting when I was

looking back at the work you do, which is like you spend a lot of your time talking to teenagers. I'm wondering why.

I think part of it is that I'm interested in ways to get people to pay attention to stories about immigration.

So I have tended to focus on the people who seem the most vulnerable.

Just in reporting, it keeps, I keep coming back to young people and minors as the people who are being

most impacted by the changes that we're seeing in the immigration system.

The government acknowledges that young people are especially vulnerable.

Minors who migrate here are given education, even therapy, before they're released.

But a few months back, Hannah started to notice this change in how kids and their lawyers

were thinking about this help.

I was talking to immigration advocates and immigration lawyers about the way that therapy works

in migrant child shelters.

And people started to tell me about cases where their clients had been

deported or had been held because of what they had told therapists.

Just for a second, think of all the weird things you might tell a therapist, especially if you had just traveled a few hundred miles on your own and landed in a detention center on the border with no idea of what would happen next.

And a lot of lawyers told me about cases like this in which some tossed off remark or a dream they had that they

shared with a therapist came up in legal proceedings.

A dream?

Yeah, yeah, I heard a couple cases like this.

One lawyer told me about a client who had dreamed of a relative's death.
