Fair enough. But that’s also your personal decision. I’m not going to judge anyone for (politely) advocating for themselves at the moment.
As I’ve said many times, it’s up to each individual to politely advocate for themselves. I totally respect that you don’t feel comfortable doing that, but I’d also ask that you respect and not judge individuals who feel comfortable kindly and politely advocating for themselves. Like I said, I found everyone I encountered to be incredibly understanding and gracious. People shouldn’t be a jerk or mean-spirited about it, but people also shouldn’t respond with hostility. If you’re not comfortable with someone potentially making a request like that, you should either be more mindful to begin with or not come. It’s a two-way street. We’re all in this together, and if people want the parks to stay open (nothing is certain at the moment), then everyone needs to do their part (as Disney keeps saying lol).
I think everything has to be within reason. Disney has laid out the ground rules, which indicate that if your child is two or above, s/he has to wear a mask. If below that threshold, s/he doesn’t need to. I, for one, have a lot more leniency with very young kids (more so than a teenager for example) and also find them a lot easier to distance from. But as a fellow Guest, I’d also hope you still take the necessary precautions to ensure I and other Guests have an experience as safe as possible, just as I would do for you. That’s been literally at the center of all of Disney’s messaging. If your child starts to appear actually unwell, then I’d hope for his/her sake and everyone else’s that you left the park.
Also, I know there’s been some reports that enforcement has been iffy (not really my experience), but I’ve heard from most Guest-facing CMs I know that they’ve all reminded a Guest about wearing their mask properly within the last few days at least once, so no one should show up expecting they’ll be able to disregard the rules.
my husband doesn’t let me go in there alone haha
