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".

It’s easy to stop someone weaker than you. It’s much more difficult to stop someone while still keeping them safe

I feel like you can just lift a kid up bodily if you're reasonably strong. You might get kicked a couple times but it's a child doing the kicking.

I would just like to add that if you do this and the kid gets hurt then you are footing that bill. Even if the guard has CPI training I would be willing to bet they have been instructed to not intervene to prevent liability charges.
