We will be going to Disney with DS 3.5 who has Down syndrome. He has just learned to walk but cannot walk distances or stand in one place for more than 15 seconds. At the parks, we will use a stroller as a wheelchair for him, but my concern is on the busses. I do not think we will be able to hold him the entire way to a park if we need to stand. Besides the fact that he is very heavy these days, he gets angry when being held standing up and head butts and pinches, injuring us. We are generally used to this and working on it, but it is not something we want to deal with in a crowded bus. Note we will also have a baby with us who must be held by the other parent.
We are staying at a monorail resort, so this is only an issue for AK and HS. Any advice? Obviously, I hope we will get a seat, but should we wait in the disabled area as if it is a scooter or wheelchair? Ask someone for their seat (I feel awkward doing this)? Wait for the next bus (not appealing with four little ones in the evening)
