WDW and a Teen

[Hatzie]

We are staying at the CR and my DS13 wants to go to the Arcade by himself, while we go to DTD. I don't have a problem with him doing this, but does Disney have a problem with this?

No they don't. We usually stay at the Poly and its our tradition to go send the 3 ds 17,15 and 13 to the contemporary with a roll of quarters each. Last time ds 15 and 13 went by themselves and got carried away and didnt notice the time. Gheesh. Well by then the monorail was closed down. so smart thinking that they are decided they could use their money for a cab or they could get a dtd bus and go switch when they got there to the poly bus. They were waiting for the dtd bus and one bus driver asked them where they wanted to go, so they told him the poly and he just took them right there since he didnt have any one else on the bus. If you give your ds your expectations and rules he will be fine. Also keeping a means of communication, cell phone etc. is important.

He's become very independent over the summer being home by himself. I just want to make sure he will be safe and no one will hassle him. He has a cell phone that we will be bringing, so we have the communication thing covered. I'd like to give him some space, but I don't want to have to worry about him.
Thanks for the imput.
