THANK YOU :) That's exactly what I meant.Nobleman wrote:I think what AndyFL and others meant was that PARENTS bringing their KIDS should have their kids enjoyment, safety, sanity, and fears in mind before their own.
In other words, the parks are well suited for most ages to enjoy themselves, but a parent should be putting their kids needs before their own.
i.e. if a kid is terrified and doesn't want to go on a scary ride that the parents really want to go on, they should consider their child first and find another solution rather than forcing their kid on the ride.
e.g. if the parents want to run all over the entire park on schedule to get their money's worth, but the kid really wants to keep doing something they enjoy, the parents should adjust their schedule within reason.
And I still say psycho dad needs a frozen coke poured over his head.

Re: Have the CMs noticed kids being dragged around by crazy parents?
We don't go commando, but we usually have a *general* plan. The older two help us plan out what we want to do and we usually start in one area and go from there. We do not criss-cross the parks to do one ride and then come back to the same area we were just at....my back would not be able to hande it. As someone posted prior....walking for the sake of walking just does not happen.
And we compromise. If my daughter wants to ride the Tower of Terror five times in a row, but my son wants to walk around, we split up and that's what happens (thank goodness for cell phones!). If we walk past Pirates on our way to the Carpets and there's practically no line, I ask if we can make a detour and let my kids decide (and, yes, there have been isntances where they're like "No, we want to ride the carpets").

My family does the same. We will split up and dad will tell us what time to meet. We always carry cell phones incase the lines are longer than we thought.
When we go to WDW, if someone wants to sit out from a ride, we send them into a cool shop to check out the merchandise. :D:

They could be wear a kilt, that would seriously cut down on the chaffing. Of course, if you want bad chaffing there is always the platemail bikini...ktulu wrote:Good plan, could you imagine the chaffing?

Re: Have the CMs noticed kids being dragged around by crazy parents?
Those will do for chaffing in a pinch, but I imagine plate would work better. Of course I lack any and all experience on the subject...CujoSR wrote:I prefer seeing chain mail bikinis, but I'm a pervert.
