I think it's pretty amazing that anytime a couple/family wants to sit together, they always seem to need to have to move forward. I've read other posts where maybe the mother is in a bulkhead seat right behind FC, and they ask 1 or 2 people to move, so their spouse/family that's typically in next to the last row of the plane can sit with them. I always think, "If you really want people to move, you'll have a much better chance of staying in the back, and asking others to move forward." Doesn't seem to happen too much though.
