    why did the parents not just leave the child behind? I’m sure once he saw them boarding the plane without him and the fear of being alone so far from home would have been enough to scare the child into compliance.

    as a parent the most powerful tool to teach is deceit. “if you don’t stop this scary thing will happen that you won’t like”. fear is a wonderful motivator.
