I am SE and when I go on vacation with my family I bring them to the lounge. That is a privilege I have earned and I will use it. If you don't like kids in the lounge…then tell AC to put in a kids area.

I do my best to contain my kids but as I mentioned in the original post, sometimes they are a bit loud. Now if AC (and a lot of people on this forum) believe a few extra seats are better than not to have to listen to my kids for an hour or so….well than so be it.

The domestic lounge in YYZ has a big conference room at the back of the business area which I have never seen used. Seems like wasted space to me

In my opinion, a small confined area for children(about the size of a kids bedroom would do) in every lounge would benefit everyone. It could even be used by adult FFs if no kids were present…or shared as long as they didn't mind kids and the noise that comes with them. I know a lot of the lounges are just too small already but some are not.

But I would have to agree, if a lounge doesn't have showers that would be more of a priority.
