[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They probably will not say anything if you just board together.  If that feels wrong/pushy to you, you can board first and save a seat for your child.  At 11 he can board by himself.

I would not pay extra.[/quote]

I literally had a SW worker give me a hassle about letting my 6 year to board with me in my group because she was booked in the next group. So I was the end of the A's and my daughter was the beginning on the Bs.

I would not let an 11 year board by themselves on SW. People are not nice. [/quote]

So you do family boarding but no, you can't both board during A boarding.  If you were already at the end of A you would be next anyway. Not worth getting into a fight with the agent over this.[/quote]

So I was supposed to board the plan and leave my 6 year old in the terminal to wait their turn?  You don't seem that smart. I've been on several flights that didn't offer family boarding. [/quote]

DP here. All Southwest family boarding and its always between A and B. I'm guessing what happened to you was just one overzealous gate agent. But in terms of seat selection, there is no meaningful difference between the end of the A's and doing Family Boarding. Either position will still have loads of entirely empty rows to choose from.
