Well we never said the fal'Cie had any kindness or regard for human life. ^^; Oddly enough looking at how the kid was after the experience, it did not seem to be a negative impact on him. But he was also branded by Lindzei and not Pulse, perhaps Pulse is more invasive than Lindzei. Considering he isn't really a huge focus on screen time, it is hard to know if there were any negative after affects left on him.
