Weird Situation

[Jurassic Referee]

I would have thrown the kid back; too small to keep.

Seriously.....if you can get the kid safely back off the court and out of harm's way without stopping play, do so. But if there's any chance at all that the kid might be put at any risk, immediately stop play and protect the kid. The safety of any child comes before anything that happens out on the court.

Sometimes I think that Jurassic Referee has bipolar disorder.

+1, except the kid may have been a keeper. We don't grow 'em as big in my neck of the woods as most places.

When it comes to small kids like you describe in your OP, I agree with JR. Yours' was a MS game but even if it had been a V game, make sure the kid is OK. It's just a game.
