"I'm pretty sure ICE's actions were what tore those families apart."

ICE only enforce the laws that already exists.

So only two possible parties are at fault here:

1. Congress, if the current laws are bad.

2. Parents, if they are in violation of the law.

Requesting Motel 6 to break the law is clearly far outside the scope of enforcing the laws that already exist.

If you sign up to enforce evil laws, you're voluntarily choosing to do evil. Multiple parties can all be at fault at the same time.

How are border/immigration laws evil?

If only that were so. There’s no law requiring ICE to target Hispanics, hassle people speaking Spanish in public, or hold US citizens for months. In fact, the law says they can’t. This doesn’t seem to stop them.
