I have no problem with them attempting to upsell to adults eg free tasters of Sky Cinema or Sky Sports, but to remove kids channels unless an extra payment is made, then try to get children used to them again by offering sporadic free periods so that they will exert pester power on their parents (who may well not be able to afford it) is total manipulation and goes beyond the usual attempts to upsell that many companies undertake.
