I have a seen a number of people stretching that age limit...esp in MCO runs.
We are a family of five and are almost always able to sit "together" ie 3/2 nearish each other. Once when we did not purchase EarlyBird and had a problem and checked in at T-23, we did get split up 2-2-1. I could't entice anyone to swap an aisle for my window seat, even with a drink coupon offered up. Kids sitting on their own were 9 yrs old. They were fine but I do actually enjoy hanging with them on flights.
