Huge Strollers

Personally, I think I should be allowed to bring my Smart Car into the park as it is the only way all of my personal needs can be accommodated. First, I am incredibly lazy. I don't want to be bothered with attending to my sons needs in a way that is respectful to both him and others around us. If he whines, demands something, or seems even remotely inconvenienced, I will bend over backwards to accommodate his demands. I would rather give him snack food and a video game while waiting in line for rides than engage him through conversation, observation of his surroundings, and perhaps a game of I Spy or spot the hidden Mickey. I certainly don't want to be bothered to teach him the values of patience and appreciation. I mean really! It's Disneyland after all....why would I want him to learn any valuable life lessons?

I need the Smart Car to tote 3 changes of clothes, 5 kg bag of beef jerky and a flat of juice boxes on ice. ( he hates warm juice. I wouldn't want to tarnish his DL experience with a scarring memory of warm fruit punch). Also, it is very convenient for him to nap on there. I would hate to have to traipse back to my $400 a night hotel so he could nap in comfort. Too far for me to walk.

If I should 'accidentally' run in to anyone with my car, I will say sorry. This, of course, absolves me of any responsibilities for my choices and will make their bruises less painful for me to bear. And of course, if my car should be blocking an aisle or pathway, it is up to others to request my permission to pass, since I hadn't even considered someone else might want access besides myself.

One question, though. When should I stop coddling my son and start expecting him to behave respectfully in public? He will be 22 this summer.

Thanks!
 
From the OPs comments: anything bigger than a umbrella or small lightweight stroller. For doubles, you should have two of the above strollers or at the most a tandem two seater (not side by side).

What is wrong with that? Someone finallly gets it. I do get they were mocking me, but they typed and I didn't have to, so yes, that is what we mean.

Amen!
 
Our choice to buy a larger umbrella stroller (so a smaller stroller in the grand scheme of strollers) had nothing to do with Disneyland, but with the fact that I loathe big strollers and using them myself.

I see. So since you can't think of a good argument to state your case you resort to exaggeration because it's the only way to make your asinine argument sound remotely good.

There's nothing wrong with these strollers. What is wrong is expecting everyone to only use YOUR approved standard for strollers.

It's called hyperbole. My mom taught me while we were waiting in a line. Way to get it, though!

Since you are a travel agent, make sure you tell your clients not to take their suv strollers to DLand because you think its disrespectful to you. I wonder how many clients you will have after that...

I smell a troll....

Wow, just wow.
 
Now isn't that rude Coaches24. Noone attacked you personally, but you felt the need to attack someone else. Guess I will be asking you to move out of the way with your SUV and you wont' be offended at all right? Hypocritical.:happytv:

I have been one of the top selling agents in my area (northern province) for 14 years, so I think I will be fine and I will keep telling my clients to be respectful and also to be more comfortable for themselves if they buy and bring a smaller stroller, but thank you for the advice.
 
I call it rude and disrespectful. I guess your mom didn't teach you enough.

Hey! I take offense to that. My mom did a great job of teaching me that my needs come first! Just last week when I was tired after eating my second cotton candy of the day she told me while pushing my stroller "don't you worry about what anyone else thinks, Princess. You deserve this!"

No I won't be offended at all (and never have been in the times I have been asked to move). But if your going to act like an a** I'm going to treat you like one. Then maybe I'll eat peanuts near you even though my psychic powers tell me you are allergic.

You honestly tell your clients that it is respectful to buy a certain stroller? :confused3

Ah - but suggesting something to a client using the client's comfort as reasoning is much different than what has been said here. I doubt said clients would react the same way if the approach was based on making others more comfortable and telling them they were being disrespectful by bringing anything other than an umbrella stroller.
