The risk is very limited IMO. The only risk involved is that the request for getting on the earlier flight is denied and the OP will have to wait for the original booked flight. If the OP and family do not mind going to airport early and possibly spend extra time at RDU airport, they should by all means try this (however, most likely it will not work).
