Think about the courage, strength and determination it takes to make the decision to leave your home and country,  hastily pack a suitcase, carry your child on your back for miles, not knowing what will happen in the next hour, let alone the next day, or the day after, how you will eat, support your family, find somewhere to live and start over.  

We would gladly and proudly welcome these people into our country.  Put yourself into their shoes for even a day.
