Here's the situation:
We're heading to WDW next month, and my FIL will be coming in from TX to meet us there. I've rented an ECV for him (from Apple) - he can't walk far or fast and can't stand for long. Looks good, right?
Well, we were on the phone with him last night going over some things, when he said "I plan to break all the rules - if Katherine's legs are tired, she can ride with me." Dead silence from me and DH (who was giving me his best Don't Respond stare).
My position - I'm pretty sure that kids riding on ECVs is against Disney rules, I know it's against our contract with Apple, and I think it's a really bad idea. BUT - I'm also pretty sure we'll see a fair amount of it while at the parks, as people tend to ignore that sort of rule, and I don't know how strict Disney is at enforcing it.
DH is with me on the subject, but I don't know whether he's willing to say no to his dad or if it will fall on me to be the no-fun Yankee mom. I love my FIL, but he's got this obnoxious "you can't make me follow rules that I think are stupid" streak that shows up sometimes.
So - Assuming that Disney policy is that kids are not to ride on ECVs, how enforced is this? Can I (with reasonable accuracy) say that we could get booted from the park for doing it?
