Sandy Hook elementary school chorus accompanied Jennifer Hudson is singing God Bless America at the Super Bowl pregame. I personally found it in bad form, and wonder how some of the kids felt, and how they will reflect on the experience down the road.

If your concern is dependent on how they will feel down the road, that would argue for waiting a while before deciding what to think. However maybe there are historic parallels?
One thing I believe is that the parents of those children and the school counselors who are helping them heal, must have had a role in deliberating on and approving the activity. Freedom loving people defer generally to the parents in decisions regarding their children's well being, so why not here?

It is not clear to me what bothers you. Could you elaborate?

I'm not sure what you mean by "professionally offended"

Presumably all the children had parental consent and were not press-ganged
into it? I didn't see it ... was it controversial in some way?

Not really. I don't think children are quite as fragile as we think. I don't think that appearing at the Super Bowl (even perhaps being used a little) is going to cause them much in the way of emotional damage.
