my dd was at cheerleading camp in pa and of course her last tumble for her week vaction...you guessed it outch!!!:mad:

the good news it isn't broked however when it happend they said (otheropidic doctor) her knee cap actually was pushed to the other side of her knee.
now she is in a full leg brace it is still swollen and of course she will be like this for a few weeks. she walks like a pirate (good for princess/pirates party lol:lmao: ) and she walks very slow, not good for disney standards:rolleyes1

can we rent her one of the scooters even though she is 14 yrs old or is there an age limit on who can rent, and one more question how much per day at the parks???
 
unfortunately you are going to have to rent a regular wheelchair for her. i would get one from off-site, so the leg can be elevated and she can keep her leg straight. check the FAQs for more information on rental companies

would they (offsite) rent me a scooter or disney doesn't let anyone under the age of 18 to ride within the parks??
 

Offsite has the same requirements for the rider to be 18.
 
I suggest you get a wheelchair and take turns as designated pusher, BUT please practice, novice pushers and inflict serious damage on other pedestrians and the person in the chair.
 
The parks and the offsite companies have the same requirements; as part of the rental agreement that you sign, you agree to have only one person on the ECV (so, no riders) and that any driver will be over 18. If you let someone under 18 drive it after signing the agreement, you could find yourself liable in case of any accident.

Even though people don't always think about it this way, an ECV is a motor vehicle and driving one can be as difficult as driving a car - with a car, there is a road and general rules that everyone is following. With an ECV, there is no designated "roadway" and people can appear unexpectedly in front of you. For someone who is used to driving a car, that may not be too difficult, but for a teen who is not drving yet and is excited about being in WDW, it is best to stick to a wheelchair.

Also, if she is in a full leg brace, a wheelchair with an elevating footrest would be more comfortable because the leg can be put in different positions while still being supported. With an ECV, there is really only one possible position for a leg in a full brace.
