[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Wow, this is a tough one.  I'm usually one who is a "give my parents what the want" camp, but the emotional blackmail of not going if they don't have first class is BS.  Also, would they have paid for first if you weren't in it?  They just want your miles (which, people know miles aren't free right?  They are earned with money).

I'd say, leave your kids to make the choice, but I would say let your kids have them.[/quote]

Yeah. My mom assumes that because DH travels for business all the time and has enough FF miles to travel to the moon and back that first class are a snap for us to acquire at minimal cost. At the same time, my older son is really ok giving up his first class seat to a grandparent. Having this be an extended family trip is really worthwhile. My younger daughter…well…clearly she has been spoiled by DH as Daddy’s little girl and is not so wanting to fly anything but first class. I kinda want her to fly to Athens in coach just to remind her of what normal is for most people. [/quote]

This is so ridiculous I almost don’t believe it. Especially putting that part in about your DD. Who does that? You know no one would think that’s cute. 
Honest question- you may love your parents but do you like them? This wouldn’t be a question to me. Kids in coach.[/quote]
