Gary M Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 (edited) crowded amusement parks are the worst. And people who aren't smart enough to feed the kids before they are starving and acting up shouldn't have kids in the first place.

I'm always surprised to see how many families are literally dragging their kids through these places while the kids are pitching holy he-double hockey sticks fits or sound asleep in a stroller. If the kids are that unhappy in the happiest place on earth, don't you think that something needs to change? Do you really think that at 3, 4, 5 years old they are going to remember / appreciate the $ you spent to get there and into the park? Take your grouchy snot nosed kids to the pool or back to the room for a nap! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledInIllinois Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 (edited) Childless Millennials going to Disney do suck nuts... Can't argue with that. Buuuut, and that's a big butt... Complaining about them because you can't get your kid an over-priced pretzel is just as bad! LoL This is where deplorable and snowflake merge as one... Doing 98 on the shoulder trying to get over! Too many people too few resources. @LeviF91 is lining up the firing squad, GET YOUR TICKETS EARLY!!! E-ride ticket to Nirvana!!!

Marv's Neighbor Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Went to a wedding in BUF a couple years ago that had a Disney theme. The bride & groom are well educated medical profession types, but maybe if you were raised with that stuff, you see it as normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That's No Moon Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Disney parks suck. Most overrated thing of all time closely nudging out out boardwalks at the beach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My observation is that those who are most adept at parenting, tend to not have children or have children late. And when they do, they don't have that many. Those lease able to handle parenting tend to have many, with a good early head start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take your grouchy snot nosed kids to the pool or back to the room for a nap! People put way too much pressure on themselves to ‘fit it all in’ or get their moneys worth. We had a free trip to Disneyworld when kids were 5 and 3 so of course we went. Kids were engaged until about 2:00 each afternoon, at which point we bolted back to the hotel to jump in the pool.

Augie Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 We lived a couple hours from Orlando when the kids were young. If Walt Disney were alive, and I could say one thing to him.......it would be “why, Bless your little heart!” They are oppressively hot, crowded and expensive places to stand in line for an hour for a 30 second ride. YAY! What fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Hammersticks Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 Wife and I flew to West Palm for a wedding in October. Apparently, nearby is where many Disney cruises depart from. I didn’t know this, but at the baggage carousel there were tons of adults (without children) wearing head to toe Disney gear. It was bizarre. I whispered to myself “bless their little hearts” because there’s nothing more embarrassing than getting pummeled in front of your wife by a bunch of Disney freaks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a joke in here, but I am better than that! I learned my lesson. Don't trigger. I will save that for @Cripple Creek 's BearCam® thread... @BringBackFergy likes that kinda thing! But... I agree. DisneyFreaks, especially Childless Millennial Disney Freaks need to be placed on a reservation or held in cages at the Southern Border OR just kept penned into Animal Kingdom (who really goes to Animal Kingdom anyway?, The Yeti is way over-rated) like a bad virus locked away in a vault!

Augie Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 One of my favorite Disney memories is taking the kids to breakfast with the characters. My kids just ate, but the table next to us had a kid so frightened by the characters he wouldn’t come out from under the table cloth. It was expensive for them, but priceless to us! Do I go to hell for that? Or will it be something else? I don’t know how to start a poll..... maybe I don’t want to know..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boca BIlls Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 Well seeing that half of Disney now is catered to adults I don't see the problem with this. Just some B word mom being a... B word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeviF Posted July 31, 2019 Share Posted July 31, 2019 That lady is being a B word but childless 20- and 30-somethings going to a Disney park does ring a bit creepy and weird to me. Grow the ***** up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
