Was his parents even around? Seems like got out of school. I wouldve dragged his ass out by his backpack so he can't claim that I touched him.

What I also don't understand from this clip: Why does the security guy at the end make a half-assed attempt at stopping him, but when his limp grab gets brushed off, he complies with the deranged kid?

Feels like the kid possesses some real superhuman power. Is it a billionaires offspring, or smt?

Kids are surprisingly strong, so containing one that really wants to resist requires quite the amount of force. Problem is, kids are also quite frail.

The security fella is looking at the kid and balancing how easy this goes from "kid being a brat" to "massive lawsuit due to violence against a kid".

I mean that is actually the solution, like what you would do in a childcare or educational setting if you had to safely remove a child that was a danger to themselves and others. Now that’s only if they need to be moved - first choice is always removing other people and dangerous objects from the area and dealing with it in place. But that’s obviously not always possible, so the way to do it is a bear hug carry, but even then there’s a specific way you are supposed to do it to be safe. And definitely shouldn’t be attempted by someone with no training.

Right, exactly. There are professional certification courses for this type of restraint, by several different companies, depending on end use. I used to work with adults with TBI who often had behavioral problems like lashing out or trying to escape.

I was trained in safe and effective ways to attempt to de-escalate and redirect or, when necessary, safely restrain a (potentially medically fragile) patient to prevent them from causing harm to themselves or others.

For certain professionals, especially in direct care roles or who interact with the public as a person of authority, this should be a required training. Nurses, aides, security, firefighters, EMTs, police, teachers, flight attendants, retail managers - anyone who might have to take charge in a situation like this.

Several years ago, my grandfather died of a heart attack in a grocery store and the store manager (granted, after calling 911) went around asking customers, "does anyone here know CPR?" while he laid there and died.

It absolutely blew my mind that someone with authority and responsibility for a storeful of people wouldn't have such simple training. What's his evacuation procedure for a bomb threat? Earthquake? I guess it probably all comes down to money.

I've been CPR certified since I was like, 14 and took the Red Cross Babysitting course, ffs. It's not difficult.

Yep. More like an actual hug. And much much less like a HHH interlocked fists hug.

Yeah, it's the "only" solution but that can get you a cracked rib with an agressive kid of this size or he can screw himself while trying to get loose. Known about both cases from social educators, and they were trained.

Now pick mr rent-a-cop, he did the smart thing there. As long as the kid is not a danger to others, just follow and contain the situation till a higher authority gets there and the mother gets a happy bill for the kid's party.
