I'm happy that the family is reunited, but why make this a public spectacle?

These children are caught at their most vulnerable moments and then splashed across social media for the whole world to see.

I think this is a sad form of voyeurism and it's sick that so many people think this is acceptable.

If the mom or dad published this online, or gave permission to the videographer, then it should be a reminder of how much youngest members of a family are affected by long deployments.
