Taking a mathmatical approach to this. I have five children one of which is under two. He generally has 3 to 4 meltdowns in a day- not long ones in his home environment but still they are there. My 4 and 5 year old are still prone to maybe two to three meltdowns a week each. The older two are generally meltdown free but with puberty fast approaching I will book in atleast one meltdown for the oldest. Now with my pregnancy hormones I think we can put DH and me down for one meltdown each (that is a conservative answer
).
When you add them all together that makes for about 38 meltodowns in a week for my family. We are an average family, my kids are great kids and if you look at the meltdowns in a week I think that seems like a very average outlook. Now multiply that by how many families will be in Disney on any given day and you are bound to encounter a couple meltdowns. This does not mean bad parents or over worked children it just means your surrounded by happy, real life families
