TSA Goes Green Opens Family Lanes

The U.S. is finally catching on! Argentina has special lanes at airports (and banks, grocery stores, government offices etc) for families.

Now they just need to implement that for ticketing as well...

Family/Special Needs Lanes Coming to All Airports in Time for Thanksgiving Travel

The Diamond Self Select Program [link] started back in February 2008 at Salt Lake City International Airport and is now operating in 48 airports. The program allows passengers to proceed through the security checkpoint at their own pace by selecting one of three lanes: Black Diamond (for Expert Travelers), Blue Square (for Casual Travelers), and Green Circle (for Families, those with special needs, and those unfamiliar with TSA procedures.)
