I know a childless couple that have season passes to Disneyland. Like, the corporation is going to refuse their money? Perhaps future president Pence can dictate this nonsense.

As I think there is more to rant about in terms of alligators than waiting in a queue with people without children.

Disney knew its property had alligators. It caught hundreds before a boy was killed - The Washington Post

If you go to Florida you should assume alligators period.

I didn’t read this thread I admit. I’ve always enjoyed visiting Disneyland even in adulthood and my one lone complaint has always been parents obliviously ramming their monstrous strollers into the ankles and calves of people. It’s a darn epidemic!

I've been to both Disney parks. Disneyland and Disneyworld are NOT the happiest places on earth; quite the opposite. I saw enough ugly behavior from both adults and kids to last me 3 lifetimes, and this latest episode involving yet another enraged mommy is the cherry on the sundae. No thank you. My "grand" will discover a national park instead.

Disney is getting more expensive every year. They need all the visitors they can get. I’m not a fan of those parks. Too artificial for me. Disney is out of reach financially for many couples. too Much to see in real life.

The woman b***ed about long lines...what the hell did she expect...what makes a "mother" so special that she shouldn't have to wait in line. The child wanted a Pretzel, so she should have waited....that's what responsible people do. If you go to a popular place, expect to wait.

I see no problem with anyone who wants to wasted their money going to DW. This woman certainly didn't have to wasted her money taking her brat there.

Waaaaaaah! I went to Disney World on a fabulous vacation and had a pretzel problem.....waaaaah!

OMG, I wish karma would take her and make her live in a tent in a swamp for a month pooping in a bucket with no internet or ac.
Me too! How about work two jobs and juggle things instead of having hubby pay all the bills.

And yet the parks are packed year ‘round.

You don't expect alligators in an amusement park aimed at families and you certainly don't expect a picnic area right beside the water. Disney's own copmmon sense should have told them to fence off the area and stop families from going anywhere near it.

Most tourists in Florida tend to stay in the plush hotels and stay around the beeches and don't expect alligators.
