Nine times out of ten I will take the company of a well-mannered child over some lout of an adult -- in any cabin. Anyone who thinks age correlates with maturity hasn't flown enough.
C'mon, it's been days since someone has started a "I hate kids in J and F" thread...
I'd highly suggest the OP flies via private jet, as s/he could then control his/her seatmates. Barring that, I find a couple of drinks and some noise-cancelling headphones block out just about anything. I utterly detest children, but it's not within anyone's rights to bar them from sitting in a premium cabin if their ticket has been paid for with money or miles.
