That seems like an unnecessarily rude thing to say. Every family has different needs and wants. While most of the time it is financial, sometimes it isn't. I simply don't want fried, fatty foods for every breakfast/lunch/dinner/snack. Nor do I want to spend $3 for an apple. That's just poor money management no matter how you look at it. Thankfully we stay at a rental house off property and we always rent a car so getting groceries to take with us isn't a problem. If we were ever to stay on resort you bet we would bring snacks/have them ordered. Why not? Personally I'd rather have extra money for souveniers and experiences. The food is only going to stay with you for 12 hours (give or take
). Experiences and souveniers will last much longer.
You may decide to wait another year and "do it right" but in the meantime the rest of us are saving money and by doing so we are able to squeeze in an extra disney vacation while you're still saving for that first, perfect trip.
I know with my kids they don't tell me they are hungry when they start to feel it- they let us know when they're beyond hungry and can't wait. That's when those pre-packed containers of strawberries and goldfish crackers come in handy. I would hate to leave my place in line, or have to wait in line for food when a kiddo is already past that point.
Different families work differetly. While I respect your views, and the way you wish to take a vacation, you probably could have found a less offensive way to get your point across.
