I'm pretty sure they don't allow you to sit in the seats at the emergency exits if you are travelling with a child, as you have to be capable of opening the doors in the event of an emergency. Certainly, on a couple of different airlines I've flown with, they've asked the people sitting in those seats if they would be able to open the doors and if they were comfortable with that, and if not, would they move elsewhere. Can't help you as to the cost of extra legroom seats though - maybe someone else will know that.
