That was fine as we had her in the stroller and just kept at our activities. I can't recall how it was on the return side as it was pretty much a non-event.
Your mileage will of course totally vary based on age and the way your kid is though.

My 5yo at the time, was completely fine with jetlag, he knows he needs to sleep and he went to school and survived it.
The 2 yo kicked our ass as she still naps, so the nap became the overnight sleep. Cranky af before and after. Wakes up in the middle of the night cause that was nap over in Asia. First night back she was up from 1am - 6am. We took turns with her at night but we both wanted to die for a month.

Isn't the kid supposed to be sitting in the back as well?

It seems like no one was even holding the kid, the kid was crawling around the car by themselves as the mom drove and he opened the door and fell out.

Reminds me of when I was 7 and my parents drove me and my 4 year old brother to Disneyland but we made a stop in Reno so they could play slots. Security told them kids weren't allowed in the casino so my parents thought about it a bit and decided the best thing to do was to leave me and my brother outside the casino. I remember having my hands on the glass looking into the casino seeing my parents play slots while me. Back then it was kinda normal, today that gets you arrested.
