Am I the only one that feels that they are using him for sensationalism?

I am sure that many psychologists and professionals were consulted about the potential pros and cons of him making a public appearance.

I missed exactly those few minutes of Moshe Holtzberg saying Tehillim. If anyone finds a clip, please share.

why do u think psychologists were consulted? are you assuming? I think they understand that this child is doing a kidush hashem. thats all I think there is to this. I dont know if he feels comfortable doing it. or he was convinced.

I'm sure that "the many professionals" would agree that Moshe should be given the most normal childhood possible.

I don't think Moshe's parents would have wanted him to be put on show and have a clip of him (as you requested in your post) be sent all over the cyber universe.

No I do not think the Chabad Commity agrees. He read one kappital of tehillim. He has been kept out of the spotlight for many years. I think it was appropriate and very moving. I think his realities approved or they wouldn't have allowed it.

How would that make it right or wrong?

Almost everything in life is a matter of opinion. Including whether one week or less in the limelight was good for him or not good. Only G-d knows for sure.

I found it very moving, and I'm not chabad.

He's clearly being brought up well, and I assume his grandparents could have stopped it if they didn't approve.

Moshe'le's face is glowing a bright spiritual orah - light.

The shechina is surely resting on his charming face.

May he be blessed with a very fulfilled long life with lots of mazal, brucha, health and happiness עמו'ש!
