I am interested in studying the psychological impact children face when separated from their parents due to immigrations laws. I found a few sources on immigration and the psychology of children.
Using the library database I found this journal article:
This article discussing immigration laws and how it relates to children.
Zayas, Luis H., and Mollie H. Bradlee. 2014. "Exiling Children, Creating Orphans: When Immigration Policies Hurt Citizens." Social Work 59, no. 2: 167-175.

This next article reviews the psychological changes a child goes through due to immigration circumstances.
Michael Aronowitz. 1984. "The Social and Emotional Adjustment of Immigrant Children: A Review of the Literature." Volume: 18 issue: 2, page(s): 237-257.
