If it's any consolation, I once saw a five-year old girl getting "wanded" at a security checkpoint at National Airport. I'd love to hear the rationale behind *that* "random check"...
Perhaps you should recall the stories of terrorists strapping bombs to little kids, then? They have the kids walk up to a checkpoint, the soldiers go "how cute", let the kid get close, and the adult watching from a bush pushes a button.

Wouldn't take much to do the same in an airport. Or use the kid to carry a weapon for someone else on the plane.
