That would make things interesting.
This. I don't think it's necessary to deny the kid citizenship, but I do think that kid is absolutely NOT an excuse for the parents to stay. The kid is a citizen, so he/she can stay here, but the parents need to GTFO and come in the legal way. If the parents don't want to be separated from the baby, that's cool- they can take it with them.

Of course, I also think it's high time the US starts billing the Mexican government for all the hospital bills racked up by its citizens.
