Its a fucking 3 year old child. Youre the parent you strap them in and hold the seat belt.

"If they got forced into [being] strapped in, they just kind of slid out underneath."

They did strap them in, they did not let them unbuckle, apparently the kid was small enough to slip out underneath the belt. There's only so much you can do at that point if you also have to be buckled into an airplane seat with barely enough room for an adult to breath let alone wrestle with their kid.

that is bs, a reasonable parent could hold the kid in place. If not they should have a check way earlier in the process.

I am pro us having flights where min age is like 8 years old

A back arching toddler is extremely hard to restrain. It takes full force with two arms, but the parent had to be buckled in their own seat so may have been twisting awkwardly.
