Same here, never got charged for having kids at an M Club/normal lounge but definitely have been charged at a Ritz. I would check the website for the particular Ritz you are interested in as sometimes they spell out their "extra guest" policy in detail including what, if any, discounts/accomodations they give for children. If your kids are under a certain age they might get in free at some Ritz's.
For example here is the policy for the Ritz Tokyo which looks like kids under 6 are free:
Our dress code is an important tradition. We appreciate that guests are dressed smart casual at all times.
We invite you to enjoy our food and beverages after your check-in and before check-out on the arrival and departure date.
For a third guest enjoying Club Lounge privileges, a supplement of JPY 25,520 per person per night will be applied for adults and children 12 years old and above; and JPY 5,104 per person per night for children from 6 to 11 years old.
We warmly welcome up to two of your visitors to enjoy the exclusive surroundings of the Club Lounge during your stay with us. Should they avail themselves of refreshments, a charge of JPY 8,294 per person per period of culinary experiences will be applied for this privilege.
Guests below 12 years of age are welcome between 7 a.m. to 7:30 p.m. daily.
