Global entry for Children

I am a member of Global Entry ( A GREAT program for frequent travelers) and in the past, have been allowed to go to the front of the line with my young twins and wife. My wife was just approved yesterday and we were advised that children must now join if they want to use the benefits of the program while traveling with their parents. The customs agent said that attempting to take children through that are not enrolled, could result in the loss of your card and cancellation of enrollment among other things. Probably worth the extra $100 per child just to be safe as there are no guarantees that you can skip to the front of the line when traveling with your family. By the way, the appointment bookings online can take two months from the time you receive your conditional approval, but we went to the Miami airport yesterday to standby for a walk in and they got us in and out in 45 minutes - not too bad!
