Why do migrants have to face problems?

Migration is the movement by people from one place to another with the intention of settling temporarily or permanently in the new location.  Moving is not an easy thing to do. A person has to leave all of his or her friends and family behind. There are new schools and new towns. A lot of times, a family will move because an adult has a new job. It is a stressful but an exciting time, too. Now imagine you are moving to a new country. You don't know anyone there. No one in your family speaks the language well. When you get there, your parents will have to find a house, jobs, and learn to survive in what seems like a different world. These are some of the problems that immigrants to this country face every day.
