When I travel with my family we would not mind if I was seated in a different location in the cabin let alone if I was in the First Class cabin. I love the window seat or bulkhead seat so if my Parent's wanted to sit next to each other I would let them sit towards the back and let them have their peace and quiet.

When I was flying with my Mother for a conference I upgraded myself to First Class roundtrip asking her if she would like my seat. She declined like after the 20th time I asked her in the month proceeding the trip. We went to the lounge and she could not believe she could get a coffee for free. She kept asking the agent how much is it for the latte. I roll eyes and laugh to myself.

On one international trip the airline upgraded my seat and I asked my Father if he wanted it he just said no. I could not believe he would decline my First Class Sleeper seat with real Dom P, Steak, Cheese platters, ice cream sundaes, Audio Video on Demand and a great breakfast. I was enjoying myself and asked the cute flight attendant serving me to bring a glass of Dom P to my Father(:

Its usually the other way around where the parents are in First and kids in coach. I once talked the flight attendant to see if she could get my Brother and I into First Class since they needed our seats at the very last minute for two people going to a funeral. There were no two seats together in First but what did we care? I heard the conversation and told her that if you needed our seats please let us know. This was in the days when OP Ups could be done onboard. So before our international flight took off we were moved.

Honestly I've had some of the best flights alone or away from my Parents as they could talk about whatever and not bother me every second about how to turn on the AVOD system , create a playlist lol. Before we took off I already had the Airshow Map up and switched to the camera my Father was bewildered about the camera views. I had some great playlists ready to go.
