Sooo... accompanied minors are being physically removed from the care of their families. Tended to by agency and logged as unaccompanied.
Some stats on family units and unaccompanied "alien" children detained through 2016.

Testimony
Before the Permanent Subcommittee
on Investigations, Committee on
Homeland Security and Governmental
Affairs, U.S. Senate
gao.gov/assets/700/691…
"Also, according to ORR data, DHS
referred 40,810 unaccompanied children to ORR in fiscal year 2017,4 and
in the first 6 months of fiscal year 2018, DHS apprehended nearly 22,000
unaccompanied children."
" 6 U.S.C. § 279(g)(2). Children traveling
with related adults other than a parent or legal guardian—such as a grandparent or
sibling—are still deemed unaccompanied."
"Trafficking
Victims Protection Reauthorization Act, unaccompanied children in the
custody of any federal department or agency, including DHS, must be
transferred to ORR within 72 hours after determining that they are
unaccompanied children, except in exceptional circumstances."
interesting ... number of family units apprehended going down.. yet unaccompanied minors is going up ? But a couple of tweets ago there was testimony about the mistreatment and how they plan to improve ???
