Dr. Paul Wise : Separated children included girls separated from mothers and boys separated from their fathers.
Border Patrol separated children for as many as four days to avoid overcrowding, he says.
A CBP official says separation was "significantly different than previous policies of separating families".
"Family separation cannot be the solution," says a lawyer at the National Center for Youth Law .
Wise says Border Patrol was generally complying with its obligation to provide basic necessities to children in its custody.
But he noted that young children were receiving adult meals and that some families were not being provided sleeping mats.
