They are marked as quotes, they shouldn't be the essence of what the child said they should be verbatim what the child said. No child will utter those phrases and she used them to round up the anti-TSA crowd, the same way you did by writing "TSA denies screening for young boy with pacemaker" even though nobody suggests he was denied screening or kept of the airplane.
