Revelation is a confluence of past episodes and future prophecy so as to derive the context of the whole and the end times.
What often happens is certain scriptures are taken out of context to make a studied point about any number of topics in Eschatology.
While the whole of Revelation is meant to be understood as a full on narrative of past events that make necessary the future ones.

I've been referred to as sir. And that was face to face. AhhhhhhH! Yeah, I wish that was just a joke. 
What happened to the children in the Exodus when their parents were punished for sin and were forbidden to go into the promised land? Did God punish the children for the sins of their parents?
Deuteronomy 1:39
39 Moreover your little ones, which ye said should be a prey, and your children, which in that day had no knowledge between good and evil, they shall go in thither, and unto them will I give it, and they shall possess it.

OK.
My question was answered in the same post 7 by the commentary I posted beneath the question. Making it not really a question but an answer.

Why would I work so hard to imply or infer a child is doomed.
Ellicott's Commentary for English Readers
(14) The unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife.--Any scruple which a Christian might have felt as to whether matrimonial union with an unbeliever would be defiling is here removed, and the purity of the former teaching justified. In contrast to that other union in which the connection is defiling (1Corinthians 6:16), the purity of the believing partner in this union, being a lawful one, as it were, entirely overweighs the impurity of the unbeliever, it being not a moral, but a kind of ceremonial impurity. The children of such marriages were considered to be Christian children; and the fruit being holy, so must we regard as holy the tree from which it springs. It must be remembered that the "sanctification" and "holiness" here spoken of is not that inward sanctification which springs from the action of the Holy Spirit in the individual heart, but that consecration which arises from being in the body of Christ, which is the Christian Church (Romans 9:16.)
Go well?
Look, if someone wants to worship a higher power that is omniscient and omnipotent and damns babies to Hell, who can stop them?

B
When Jesus returns, it will be with a shout and the trumpet of the archangels, all the world will see him coming in the clouds. This is not a secret whisking away. The dead will rise from the grave, and go up to meet him as he descends also those living will go up to meet him as he descends to the earth, making a an escort procession for the return of the king. The unbelievers will be "taken away" in judgement, as Jesus refers to the flood of Noah. Then his millennial reign on earth begins.
I'm not sure the exact age. Probably depends upon the person. But from scripture it is apparent that God does not punish children for the sins of their parents.
Also, people are only held accountable for what they know and understand. The scripture says that if there first be a willing mind it is accepted by what a man has and not what he has not. So some people, such as people with intellectual disabilities, may never reach the age of accountability. God is a just God and he is the judge.

This is fostering the worst form of speculation.
First, all our days were numbered before one of them came to be (Psalm 139:16). Second, we are not judged according to the salvific status of our parents (Ezekiel 18:24). Third, God, the Judge, will do what is right (Genesis 18:25).
Teach your children the gospel. Teach your neighbour's children the gospel. Don't worry about things that are beyond your capacity to know.
