I've been volunteering over at a local pediatric psych ward for some time. One of the kids think restraining stuffed animals is funny as part of play. The reality is that we hate doing restraints and have been hurt doing them. I've been in over a hundred restraints throughout my life, kids to adults and hate ever being a part of it. This kid just throws around human shaped stuffed animals and 'restrains' them thinking it's a fricking joke.
Where I volunteer, I'm limited to CPI restraints but the actual staff gets to do chemical restraints. Restraints of any form is not funny. Chemical, you end up tied down to a bed. Physical,, you will probably have a dislocated shoulder or an arm that hurts.
A kid thinking that that is funny is disgusting behavior and shouldn't be allowed.

Is the kid in question actually psychotic or is he larping for attention?

He's LARPing as a staff member thinking that it will get him home quicker. Reality is that it sets his progress back greatly because part of it being a kid is accepting adult guidance and he pretends to be an adult.

When I was in there the pizza was probably the worst meal. Reheated frozen deep dish kinda thing. Overall the food was actually pretty good, plenty of veggies.

No, I don't think so. It's kinder to let the child think of it as a game than to admit the reality that the process they're being subjected to for reasons they barely understand can often be frightening, humiliating, and painful.
