The Romans educated children whose families could afford the fees charged buy the Gramanticus. Rome did not have a state education system. Teachers run classes for a fee. The litterators run classes for children up to the age of 10-12 and children learnt to read, write and basic maths. Children of families who could afford it went on to study until the age of a grammaticus until the age of 14-15
There is no pat answer to your question. The Romans, just as people today, had wide ranging family sizes. The wealthy tended to have smaller families as they were able to know about and afford contraception, while the poor and the lower classes bred more children. The factor of infant mortality also comes into play. There was a high infant death rate among the Roman families and also childhood deaths. It is said that if a child lived to his/her tenth birthday, they would stand a chance of living to a ripe old age.

Olden Days: In the old times, teenagers could get married at the age of 15, though now it is illegal. Children were also so much more disicplined with more stricter teachers, modern day children are spoilt and are really the master in the house. Now that we've got more technology, people will probably go watch T.V while their family have a BBQ. If we did not have such techology our families would be closer. Though we had more diseases back then, we are still getting more diseases now like the Swine Flu! Ok if you listed this thank you so much and good bye

A true family reunion to reunite the generations still alive so of course children would be involved. In these more modern times some families may feel a family reunion is only for the adults and it is a decision the entire families are going to have to make as to whether to include the children or not. It would sad if the children were not invited to complete the family circle of life.
