Default Child Locks "self engaging" in 1997 Ford Expedition

My 1997 Ford Expedition with over 165,000 miles has developed a bad habbit of locking people into the back seat. It has been doing it for about 30,000 miles now (or about a year and a half) and what seems to happen is the child safety lock switch just seems to drop while driving.

I actually found my way here to see about fixing a door ajar problem and I found the WD-40 suggestion so I figured I would ask if anyone else has had this issue. I plan to take the door apart and see if I can just remove the child lock parts so that this stops happening but I figured I would ask before I take the door apart and either start copping or welding depending on which is the better way to fix this...

Thanks for any advise!
