Botton line is they pay an extra £8.50 to get a vote, over and above what they would pay anyway for the 3 kids to be members. A few cups of coffee at a cafe. If they do not think membership is good value - as Clement listed - for the kids then they can just join as an adult. We are not talking big bucks either way.
One can slice and dice the numbers other ways - for example if the juniors retained full voting rights then their votes only cost £10 each, less than half of the adults: and by your own argument you could not accept that either.
I am getting a bit nervous discussing how much each vote costs - just in case the FBI google it and come a calling!

Quote:In the example I quoted, under the proposed new constitution (and current membership fee structure) the family adult is paying £17 more than an individual adult to cast his/her one vote.
