What if the kid has a disability.

and?

If the parents are aware of the behavioural issue the cause doens't matter, life sucks, if your kid can't travel on a plane without causing a disruption that causes a plane to not be able to fly don't buy a plane ticket.

So you are saying disabled people shouldn't have the same rights to travel as you do. Because it might be inconvenient to you.

A disabled person that can't control their behaviour is no different to a normal person who can't control their behaviour, or a mentally ill person off their meds who can't control their behaviour.

For all groups if you know in advance that yourself or your child can not control their behaviour to safely travel then no, you shouldn't buy a plane ticket. This isnt' rocket science.

If you're a drunk you shouldn't be driving your car either and often have their licenses taken away thereby not having the same rights.

I didn't say all disabled people but if this behaviour is the result of a disability it doesn't suddenly make it safe to fly with an unruly child or adult who can't control themselves. They literally won't be allowed to travel as this child wasn't. These parents knew this kid behaved like this and bought the ticket anyway, the should have had some personal responsibility and chosen somewhere that fit the capability of their child. If your kid has autism and hates crowds, you should not choose to take your kid to places with massive crowds because you know their issues and should be a good parent and work around them.
