Do you think people are just like 'hmm, I fancy going to the US ilegally today, Honey, get the kids and we'll make a day trip out of it!' You've simplified the issue to fit the narrative you want to push. People don't take risks like that unless they have no other choice.
Keeping families together is less barbaric then separating babies and toddlers from their parents and it's what was done for decades before Trump decided to inject his own brand of cruelty into proceedings. I don't get the 'same as the rest of us' line either. Do British or american citizens get ejected from their countries if they aren't deemed worthy? When did they implement that, I wonder?
Your last sentence is a good example of dehumanisation and it's an assumption based on nothing but your own bias but thank you for basically confirming that you support the seperation of children from their parents, that's all I really needed to know.

Sorry I forgot - you’re the only one here with any understanding of such issues, despite not even being a parent. If it’s better for the children to be with their parents then fine but maybe an adult environment with many unknown adults, some or many of whom may be less than caring paternal types, was considered an even less suitable environment for them - I dont’t know as I am not privy to that information - but then again neither are you.
You seem to be assuming quite a lot based on your obvious hatred of Trump. I have no strong opinion on him one way or the other so don’t just assume things.
Who is being ejected from their country - if illegal it is not their country. If you mean the country they are choosing to leave who is ejecting them?
I am not dehumatising anyone because you say so (emotive language again) but I also care about the rights of the legal citizens of America who have a right to be concerned about open borders and undocumented people entering their country and the safety issues they could pose to others. If you don’t think dubious characters can’t or don’t pose as caring families you are very naive. America has many South American criminal gangs and drug lords in its midst - do you think they are all legal citizens and pose no threat to everyone else. Why would they want more of the same. People have to be assessed and processed for the safety of all.
