I was taught to start CPR unless there are major obvious signs of death (DRIED), and if in any doubt, then start CPR.
I believe the idea is:
1) CYA
2) To make the parents think that we at least tried.
I've never been in that situation (hope not too) but I can see that unless it was overwhelmingly obviously a very long dead child, then I'd probably start too. Not an easy one...
