you can buy an adult ticket and put in a fake DOB for your child.

maybe not the same, but last time I was doing HKG-CMB positioning flight in J. Needed to bring a daughter so redeemed and adult AM ticket (i.e. with adult taxes) in Y and OLCI.
Got flagged at the gate to do a passport / visa check presumably. But otherwise was let through obviously swapped my J ticket with the neighbour in Y.
