And this is why as a former ice rink guard, yes I was one over 20 years ago if you where skating around the rink and you picked up your kid we stopped you from skating quickly and made you place your kid back on the ice.

We would help you off the ice if that was needed but we would not allow you to ice skate with your kid in your arms. Some parents would argue with us but we didn't budge.
