Cruising with 16 week old

This doesn't relate to the OPs question, but I disagree. They were removed because DCL feels they do not have adequate medical facilities to care for infants under a certain age. It was because of the child's age and their medical facilities in relation to that child's age. While the ships sometimes have to have people taken off no matter what their age is, it is also true that Disney's new policy is specifically that their facilities are not structured to care for infants under the age of 6 months.

kind of what i said. it wasn't their age exactly. they felt they could not take care of the child. as you said, they do not have adequate medical facilities. if it was a 50 year old man having a heart attack it would be the same. they don't have adequate medical facilities so they to would be removed. if it was a 10 year old who fell and had swelling on the brain, they don't have adequate medical facilities to deal with this.
so, they weren't removed because the child was to young exactly, they were removed because they felt they could not take care of the child. right? i think its a potato patato type thing here.

Like I said, it doesn't matter, but no, that's not the point I'm making. Yes, the sick child was removed because of his/her age, not because of the illness. Infants require different care than adults. Entirely different equipment, procedures, and supplies. What DCL is saying is that their medical center does not have adequete facilities to treat infants, whatever the severity or lack thereof.
