I love Poms, too, and they are truly wonderful and intelligent little dogs ! However, they also have delicate little bones and long hair, and can easily be hurt by kids unintentionally, when they are playing with the Pom. If you get one that will be at least 10 lbs when grown, then there should be no problems once it is not a tiny puppy, but one of those tiny 4lb Teacup Poms (which I think is what you are liking so much) is definitely just too small for children, especially very young ones; and you would soon have either an injured dog, or one who bites your children to protect themselves. Neither option is a good one.
One dog that I think is great for children is a Shih-Tzu. They have a very calm disposition, love everyone, and will usually allow themselves to be treated like a doll when the kids want to pack them around. They are around 6-12 lbs usually, so a perfect size for a family dog, and they are also a smart little dog.
