Hot topic I'm sure but....

My absolute worst kid issues were at the Polynesian. Kids ran down the hall, banging on doors morning and night. One night, around 11 or so, the mother (I assume anyway) screamed at them...'Knock it off. People are sleeping.' as she passed my door.
Then there was the family sitting outside, eating at a table. As were we. Well, as we sat and tried to eat our lunch, their young son was chasing the ducks around.....right under our table, repeatedly. Mom and Dad never said a thing, well, other than to tell the child to try using a French fry to get the ducklings to stay with him. It was awful. My then 9 y/o dd bent down to try to feed a duck a piece of bread, I said to her (fairly loudly)...'Can you not read that sign? The one that says do NOT feed the ducks?' Made no difference to that family tho....they allowed their child to run around, screaming at the top of his lungs, chasing those poor ducklings.

I don't run for much, but I will chase down the poor bastard that bangs on my door and wakes me from slumber. God help them.

Exactly. I'm pretty tolerent of kids, but if I have to be woken up at 5:30am by your kids running and screaming down the corridor, especially indoors, there's going to be a major problem.

When we were at AOA in March people thought nothing of walking down the hallway talking loudly at 11pm at night. Clearly they think their conversation is more important then the people inside the rooms trying to get to sleep. After 10pm, please, talk quietly and be respectful of those attempting to sleep! Hotels with indoor corridors are so badly soundproofed!
