SEN lounge access with family

What's the Lufthansa policy for accessing the SEN lounge with partner and two children (aged 5 and 8)?
We've got a 4 hour connection in FRA. We are booked in business class so will get long access anyway but I'm wondering what the LH view is on whether children count in the number of guest for the SEN lounge.
Some airlines seem to allow children as extra guests and others are very strict with children aged 2 or over so just wondering what the LH policy is. We will be travelling on a Saturday afternoon in case lounge capacity is an impact.

If you are SEN, LH allows one guest or your partner plus as many of your own children under 18 as are travelling with you.

What’s the policy of the other M&M integrated airlines on this?

Austrian has the same policy. Kids under 18 years are not counted.

Haven‘t seen the rule written down anywhere, but have often taken partner plus kids into the SEN lounge at ZRH, so LX seems to be no different.

See Newbierunner's link above: *Gold only one guest, SEN one guest plus children.

So across the M&M integrated carriers is there any standardisation for their own lounges?

LH yes. LX, yes (but not official), SN? OS? LO? JP? OU? Oh and little LG.

Here it is: https://www.swiss.com/us/EN/fly/airport/companion-rules

SEN is one companion plus children under 18 in LX lounges.

Thank you, that's good to know.

I just assumed it is the same as at LH SEN lounges and never actually asked; and they never complained when I brought them into the lounge.

And here is SN. More generous for SEN than their mother or siblings even...
