Obviously they overlooked a scratch or a bite. Rabies isn't airborne.

This you?

No scratches, no bite. Why would they?

What do you mean? Yes. They checked the kid over and saw nothing. Obviously there was an exposure that either left no mark, left a mark that appeared normal, or the parents didn't see it.

Maybe it drooled into their open mouth or something. Or onto their hand and later they picked their nose.

Sounds possible. Bats are mammals, maybe it sneezed, covered, but didn't wash it's hands, gave the kid a high five, and then the kid wiped a booger out of his eye with it.

Poor kid, never had a chance.
