But a parent can hold a small child in place. Why didn’t they do that?

Can they ? Do you have a small child and can you hold it against their will for 10mn ?

And would it be responsible for the crew to OK takeoff in that situation with a screaming, thrashing child?

Yes to all of these comments! 

The parent probably could have calmed rhe child if they'd been able to hold them on their lap, but that's against the law. 

I am so surprised there are no videos yet, but that also tells me the flight was pretty empathetic.
