I remember from flying the Emirates A380 that it seemed counter intuitive how a family of 3 should sit but I don't remember the details now.
If you choose A they are closer together but you are in the window a bit further away. If you choose B you will be close to one of them but the other will be quite far away. A, E, F is probably your best bet unless you need to be closer to one of them in particular.
It's probably counter intuitive because the layout wasn't designed with kids in mind. A perk of travelling J is the reduced chance of having to encounter them at all!
