What not to do at Disney?

[polineedyan]

I very clearly saw the "humor", I just didn't think it was funny.

 

[Emagine]

I have one and sorry if its been repeated...

Do not shoot birds or flash on cameras on rides. Twice last year I was wanting the ride photos because they were precious of my child and both times a person in them were flipping birds. Kicker both were adult men.

It is not funny and it not cute that you can point a single finger into the air while keeping the others down while ruining the photo for the rest.


Next, I do agree with the posters on the judging of others in wheelchairs etc. I am struggling with that debate now and scared of this factor. My soon to be 8 yr old is getting way too big for the strollers in his size (he is small). He has a low muscle tone, anxiety issues, sensory processing and Autism disorder. To look at him standing and walking he will look fine, 30 mins later he will not be. Not every one milks the system and why play the judge at Disney - go have fun and let everyone else too.

My dd11 has very similar conditions. She has SPD, PDD-NOS and ADHD. Hers is the opposite she loves to squeeze someone really hard, BUT to her it feels gentle, when in fact it hurts. We have never used GAC, even though we have really good reason to We do use the FP to the full advantage. This really helps out with those long weights.

I declare my self very selfish. I spend my hard earned money to take my child to Disney World and enjoy rides and shows WITH him. I don't watch from the sidelines no matter what we do. I don't feel guilty for not sacrificing my time and enjoyment for someone else. Yes, that's selfish but too bad! Stop feeling guilty for not planning properly and stop blaming everyone else for your oversight and mistake.

.

YES YES YES!

What not to do at Disney???

Hmm...

1. Rest
2. Relax
3. Take it easy
4. Sleep

Disney is for exploring, home is for resting. Type B personalities need not apply.

Lol that's our game plan when we go

As I understand it, if you are caught flipping off the camera at Universal Studios, you are escorted out of the park.

A mom feeding her baby was offensive to you? Sad.

I guess you just like the show. Breast feeding in public should only be done with a towel over the baby and woman's breast. Not out in the open where you can see the lady's nipple when the baby is finished. This happened at the jungle cruise last month. The CM had to tell the woman that she could not get on the ride while breast feeding, you would have had to been on site to see all of the looks this couple were getting. Breast feeding is natural, yes, but you should be discreet.

We were at a restaurant at home and a woman who was about to breast feed whipped off her shirt and bra to breast feed her baby. The restaurant had to ask them to leave because of their inappropriate behavior since she was naked from the waist up.

I am not against breast feeding, but if you do it, do it respective to the other people around you and not have one girl hanging out for all the world to see. I have seen many other women do it so as to not see anything.

Don't drink the unsweetened iced tea with EVERY meal while on DDP

You actually do need to get some rest in order to keep up the pace!

Unsweetend? without the sugar I would think It would be fine?, but that would kill me no sugar???

Is anyone else surprised a thread like "what I call "the girls" hasn't popped up? I've seen Betty and Boop, the girls, the ladies..how about Lucy and Ethel, Laverne and Shirley, Benny and the Jets?

did she leave?? Thats VERY illegal! You can NOT ask a nursing mother to leave! Can't even ask her to to move out of site. You can ask her to cover up, but if she doesn't want to....she doesn't have to.
I nurse in public and am discrete about it, but some moms arn't (its hard to do with a baby that won't allow a cover) but that was incredibly RUDE to ask her to leave!! If it bothers you to see ****s, don't look.

HA! should only be done with a towel?? B/c I love to eat with things sitting on my head. I guess you haven't ever breast fed a 6 month old or older....? I TRY and be discrete, but sometimes mine unlatches and if YOURE looking you MAY see something.

What a rude thing to say to the person you quoted as well.

6) Please don't scream repeatedly on haunted mansion because you think it's funny because it's not.

TOTALLY!!!! This is so annoying!

If it bothers you to see ****s, don't look.

Not sure that I follow the logic here. I was in India a couple of years ago and people would often squat on the side of a busy public road to defecate. Based on your statements that wouldn't bother you at all, because you could always walk around with your eyes closed??? Be careful though...you might just step in the "evidence."

Based on the "don't look" policy, then public nudity of any kind should be allowed as well. Sorry...I'm not buying that.

If you are in public with me or my kids, kept it covered please. If you enjoy exposing yourself in public, then go to a nudist colony where that kind of behavior is encouraged.

Actually it's not illegal if she was indeed naked from the waist up as the poster said. I would really hope it's an exaggeration, but if it's not then the restaurant is able to ask her to cover up the side she isn't feeding from and if she didn't want to then they could ask her to leave. If she wanted to fight it, she is entitled, but I can't imagine she would win anything and if she did the most she would be able to collect is $500 which to the restaurant is probably less money to them then people walking out. The law allows that the breast or nipple may be seen when first getting the baby to latch on and if the baby should suddenly let go, but it does not allow you to sit half naked in a restaurant. I am a large advocate for breastfeeding and breastfed both of the kids at home, restaurants, museums, etc and almost all my friends breastfeed and some of them are more open then others, but none of them have had to take their shirts and bras off....that is what breastfeeding bras and tops are for.

Well, I reserve the right to think people are jerks for taking those seats when there's a little girl with a birthday button on in tears at the rope.

Don't make assumptions. We all know the old phrase of what it makes us when we do it. Don't make fun of or make comments about those who are in wheelchairs/EVCs or strollers, because NONE of us outsiders can know the WHOLE story. Don't ASSUME that people with out children can't enjoy the magic that children experience, if that adult wants to get a picture with a character, listen to storytime, dance with the CMs in the parade (given the invitation too) or wants to dress up for MNSSHP, then accept it and move on. Don't let it fester in you, no one I knows likes those kinds of people. People that don't have kids, don't look at those who do as if they are inconsiderate when their children become overwhelmed and start misbehaving. It happens, I don't have kids and I become overwhelmed. Disney is great because everyone can enjoy it. The better you plan, the better prepared you can be to go with the flow more often. On a different note I will be looking out for our fabulous poster that will be doing all the things not to do. You rock. lol.

got as far as page 32 and cant wait any longer. breast-feeding. i cant grasp in any way how someone can have an opinion on what comes so naturally to a mother and daughter would be offensive. if the woman is not related to you, or known to you, why are you commenting? offensive, i hear you say. im more concerned about YOUR issues and why anybody takes the time to post about something which has nothing to do with you whatsoever. im a 46 year old welshman from the valleys where male chauvinism is king and i can assure you that i find breast-feeding a subject on which i have no right to disagree with. for all you public breast-feeders, long may you continue. by the way, i have 3 breast-fed grown-up children and it was my wife who decided this was the natural way to go. im still shaking my head in disbelief that somebody actually is against something that doesnt concern them. amazing
