When a foreigner or illegal alien (non-US citizen) comes to the USA to have a baby for the purpose of making the baby a US citizen. The baby becomes a US citizen giving the illegal alien/foreign parent and their family grounds to come to and stay in the US and become eligible for government benefits. Also called a "jackpot baby".
Maria, an illegal alien from Mexico, had her baby in the USA. Thanks to her anchor baby, now she and her whole family can live in the US.

Get the anchor baby mug.The ankh is the Egyptian symbol of life, also reffered to as the Key of Life. Somehow it has also become a goth/vampire symbol. Because of this, most people aren't aware that it was once a part of Egyptian culture, and wear an ankh, proudly proclaiming their obsession with the dark. This makes it difficult for the rest of us enlightened ankh wearers. SO STOP IT WITH THE FRIGGIN' VAMPIRES.
Ankh =/= Vampires. I cannot stress this enough, because it drives me up the wall.
THE EGYPTIANS HAD IT FIRST DAMMIT.

A generation of migrants getting naturalized, that are used to bring in people of their own country into a new country.
What causes these immigrant waves, and economical problems?
Most of them are because of an anchor generation. A mom and dad get accepted, and let their son or daughter only marry a partner of their home country. Quite often also used to get their whole family migrated.
Ok, but that would be only one family, can't do no harm right?
It would do no harm if they would not breed 12 children, each marrying people of their own country, breeding more of their own race.
An anchor generation would not be called an anchor generation if the generation following would intermingle and take up the culture and society of the new country instead of living their own.
