什么是锚宝宝？

what is an anchor baby?

“anchor baby”（锚宝宝）是一个口语化（有时具有争议性）的术语，指在美国出生、父母是非公民的儿童。根据第14修正案的出生地公民权，该儿童自动成为美国公民。这个短语暗示父母可能后来利用这一身份为自己寻求合法居留权或公民身份，尽管实际的移民途径有限且漫长。

An "anchor baby" is a colloquial (and sometimes controversial) term for a child born in the U.S. to non-citizen parents. Under the 14th Amendment's birthright citizenship, the child is automatically a U.S. citizen. The phrase implies the parents might later use that status to seek legal residency or citizenship themselves, though actual immigration pathways are limited and lengthy.
