Now it all becomes clear; I remember a CBC broadcast ?'The Fifth Estate' February 11th 2004.
"Eleven of Quique's relatives - including his mother, common-law wife and three year-old son Angel - all live in under one hot tin roof. They are desparately poor.
His aging father owns a small sawmill in Tegucigalpa, Honduras, the capital city. But the business doesn't make enough to support such a large family.
And Quique knows that soon he'll be the main breadwinner. At his last job, working at a warehouse, he made only $20 a week. It just wasn't enough.
Quique:" I want my family to do better. Things here get worse every day. Wages are not sufficient to support a family. That justifies taking the risk. I want my family to have a better life."
This isn't Quique's first attempt to reach 'el norte'. When he was fifteen-years-old he made it all the way to the American border before he was caught. He was sent back and tried again only to make it halfway.
If Quique makes it as far as the U.S. border he's hoping that an uncle living in North Carolina will help him find a job. But Quique's family is very worried - some young men who make the trip north are never heard from again. There are countless dangers ahead; the police, gangs, and riding on the railcars".
Good luck Quique.
