I need some input from the experts on this 
We have the free regular dining plan for two adults and a 5-year-old. We currently have 7 TS ADRs, one of which is a 2-credit signature. Our stay is for 7 nights. We are considering not taking our DD to the 2-credit signature. This will leave us with 2 unused credits.
Are these credits tied to her and only able to be used for a child's meal, or can they be used by any of us?
What we would like to do is go to Sci Fi Cafe (the cheapest place we have ressies for) the day before, get two adult meals using two TS credits, and pay OOP for something for DD. Then, the next day we'd go to Yachtsman (our signature restaurant) and use 4 credits for DH and myself (DD won't be there). This will leave us with three credits left to use at BOG the next day (our last day), but they will all be credits we have because we either paid OOP for DD, or she wasn't there. Will this work, or will we end up at BOG with them saying "umm, wait, all three of these credits are for kid meals."?
To explain a different way, I guess I'm just trying to determine if TS credits are "tied" to each person on the reservation, or if the computer looks at them all the same and it's up to the CMs to recognize when one of the users is a child and to make sure that child orders his/her meal off the kid menu?
I hope this makes sense!
