The problem is that some are arguing using emotions and others are arguing with logic. The two will never come to an agreement. There is no "obsession" with having someone else in front of them in line, the issue is equal access. Equal access does not mean equal outcome. There is a lot of talk...

I don't think we will see much lowering of the standby times during the non-busy times of year. The real test will be at the holidays where it is more likely that families will be travelling and previous abusers would have the most incentive to gain an advantage.

It is comforting to know that on most of the other Disney boards I checked today, they all felt the same way as most of us did here about Autism Hippie and her attitude towards the new system and especially the CMs. I think she uses Disney as some sort of "babysitter" for her son and lets him go...

exactly and that's where she loses a lot of people and really loses her argument. resorting to histrionics is doing nothing for her cause and in fact hurts it

Done, done, and email sent with links to her facebook page and YouTube channel. And take note of the lovely part where she wishes an autistic child on anyone who disagrees with her. Must have missed that part in the sainthood handbook.

A saint would not let her potentially violent child who is so disabled that he cannot understand the concept of coming back to wait in line (per her description), but will let him enter a ride on his own where (again, according to her) anything could set him off WITHOUT ANY SUPERVISION. She has...

Exactly. She never even tried the new system. She went in there loaded for bear and nothing short of a green light pass was going to work for her. That's not exactly the example that you want to set for any child - disabled or not. Compromise is a part of life as well as giving something new a...

That has been one of the most disturbing things about how certain people have reacted to the changes. If there is one right my "able-bodied" child has at Disney it is the right to not be harmed by out-of-control children or adults. Disney has the obligation to protect the safety of ALL it's...

I think it's a great change. It must make scheduling staff a small nightmare when a restaurant that was supposed to be full ends up half-empty when there are probably plenty of guests out there upset because they couldn't get a reservation.

That would be a shame - one of my favorite memories from our trip was tricking my teen daughter into drinking Beverly. Priceless.

But giving the unlimited fastpass was causing the system to break down for ALL the guests. That isn't "fair" either. Many kids can't do Disney at all because of economics so according to your logic, Disney should just be free so everyone can go. There are many families that have hardships, some...

But Disney doesn't agree - which is why the system has been changed. Disney is a private company and has every right to change their policies as they see fit as long as they are within the law.

I think you may have something there. She said that her soon became very agitated as if he could sense that "Disney was going to be taken away from him". Maybe it was his shrew of a mother causing a scene that gave him that impression. A few CMs posted on her facebook wall last night and she...

That woman is an outrage. I love how she's perfectly fine and then as soon as she starts talking to the CM she's in tears. Disgusting. She never even tried. She worked her son up into a frenzy by making him wait while she talked to 3 managers about how the system she never used would not work...

We usually budget $5000 for an 8 night trip for 2 adults/2 teens. We just went in August and I was pretty happy that I came in $400 under budget and we didn't feel like we were watching our pennies. I could probably get it way under that if we didn't have to fly since that adds $1000 to any trip...

We've rented at Windsor Hills using Florida Sun Vacation Homes and have never been disappointed.

I've been reading a lot about the changes and I almost wish that the Today Show story had not come out. There were changes already in progress and the "for hire" crowd seems to be getting most of the blame instead of where the real breakdown of the system occurred - the overuse of the GAC by the...
