I never stated that I had a problem w/children flying premium cabins (do a search - you'll find several threads that support that idea) In fact, I've flown w/children in premium cabins (including long haul flights) as part of my own party. I simply don't understand placing one child in one cabin while the parents sit in another cabin. Two kids sitting next to each other- great, they've got each other; but one, again, I wouldn't do it.
