I'll bet you are looking at the "dry" weights of these trailers... Then comparing it to the "tow rating" of your truck, right?
Two little kids always tend to grow into two heavier kids and then they want to bring along friends!
Your Escalade is a pretty much "loaded" vehicle, so it's payload is reduced because of that.
Look at the payload sticker and that's a start..
As was said, look for "dry" weight trailer in the #4000 to a max of #5000 and you'll be better off than the ones with "dry" weights of over #6000..
Sure, they will be smaller trailers, but you got what you got and you can't change that unless you get a bigger rig..
Good luck!
