Height Restriction Sign . . . anyone else's child HATE to stand there?

We saw a Trading Pin on a cast members lanyard that had the person w/ the 40" mark next to them, and traded for it for my oldest. He was thrilled. That was his "I'm 40in" "souvenier"

I'm also of the belief that a parent sometimes has to miss out in order to teach their child they mean what they say. I have even cancel a WDW trip. (We are local, so us staying home isn't like many of you staying home.) However, I have had to carry through with these threats just a couple of times. Once they have to miss out on something big they tend to remember that mama is serious when she says to do something or accept the consequences.

Now, I've never had this problem. It has always been quite the opposite. My girls loved to stand there to show everyone what big girls they were. Maybe try making a big deal about what a big girl she is. I don't know though. Just a suggestion.

You don't need Ebay, I'm going to start a swap.

wait, I thought we couldn't do swaps anymore....isn't it a "left it with the desk and you can pick it up" kinda thing now??


Next we'll have a thread about kids that are 38" and how bad is it to lie about being 40" tall.

It's a free swap. Meaning I'm secretly taking "donations" on my paypal account for....umm...maintenance, that's right maintenance.

And FTR, good Disney parents put lifts in the kid's shoes so they can get around the height rules. Get with the program.
