Some odd/suspicious details:
"Mother" wearing Elsa t-shirt (several sizes too small) - signal to potential customers?
"Mother" bears no physical resemblance to children
"Mother's" rough grip of child's wrist in both photos - distinctly unmaternal (although what kind of mother drags her young children 2000 miles across Central America)
Child aged at least 4 or 5 wearing diapers
Child's fingers stuck in wiffle ball - some form of punishment?
"Mother" wearing orange wristband (but not children)

why would a child that old be wearing a daiper ? child looks very distressed and it has been said that building the wall will all but eliminate child trafficking at the border

The child would be wearing a diaper, if she's not potty trained well enough to go long distances between toilets. I don't see a lot of outhouses there. I think this woman should be arrested for endangerment, rather than trafficking.

agreed if she is the mother and not a trafficker or an opportunist who just grabbed some kids off the street to garner sympathy at the border

She's behaving as the mother. And he kids are behaving as her kids. Sometimes, these scenes happen in ordinary circumstances, as well. She's a shit mother taking these kids into this mess. They're not going to behave, and will definitely buck the system. My guess is they've had it with this chit.
