Mama Illegal

Would you leave your family behind to find work? Unemployment in some of Moldavia's rural areas is as high as 80 percent. Anyone who can leave to work usually does. More than 1 million people have left to find work abroad. They often work illegally and for low pay. Mothers and fathers can spend years away from their children - but the money they send home can buy them a much better life. It's a hard choice to make.
