I however understand that with just one status holder, not GGL, in a family with kid(s), flying Y can be frustrating...
I would try and use redemptions for the kids and cheaper ex-EU for the wife and myself. That way, Mrs Tafflyer was quickly Silver, then Gold in her own right and lounge access for 4 of us was a non issue.
