Trying to argue against protecting children would indeed be a waste of time. ;)

Any good parent will naturally shelter thier kids from what they deem to be harmful to thier children, both body and soul. There are plenty of bad influences in pop culture that are right and appropriate to shelter children from. I certainly would'nt take my kids to some R-rated violent...

I think it stands to reason that your chances of seeing 2 same ______ people showing outward affection for each other would be higher during gay days. This may spur questions from your child like "Mommy, why are 2 men.......?" So just be prepared to respond to your child based on your own...

:eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek: I think you should publicize this!!!! Obviously Universal has adopted some kind of policy of completely ignoring injuries to avoid lawsuits!! Thier employees must must be instructed to completely ignore injuries possibly even serious...

Agreed, it's the choreography of Music and Fireworks that makes the show. And GREAT music, such as ROE currently is. Hopefully any updates to the show, like the rumoured "Skydance" will have a great musical score. If they try to "rock out" the show with contemporary rock or dance type...

Or...moving to the wrong place depending on your point of view :wave:

I agree with the comments about Illuminations, Reflections of Earth. Even though I've seen the show a number of times, it never ceases to amaze me each time. Just a fantastic music score and fireworks show, it's hard to imagine they could ever top it.

Thank you for the welcome! Great insights! I think that's maybe that's the difference. I do "enjoy" going to Epcot, but it definately doesn't "inspire" like it used to. Futureworld used to be more dedicated to exploring the possiblities of a better future. The tag line "If we can dream it, we...

Epcot is definately my favorite of the parks, but the sense of "wonderment" that it used to evoke has diminished. I know it's natural for the novelty to wear off with repeat visits, but I think it's something more than that. I thought about this on the last trip and wondered if could just be...

We were there 11/28 - 12/6 and the crowds were pretty good. It did seem somewhat crowded, but the line queues were pretty short 10-15 min for Buzz Lightyear, Space Mountain, Splash Mountain...etc. so that's pretty good. Soarin' varied from 30-45 min. Exp Everest was 30 min. The crowds did seem...

I just returned home today from a WDW trip. Had a great time, but yes I saw some stroller rage. Mostly baby boomer age mothers pushing the stroller frantically with that look of "get out of my way or else!!!" I think the kid in the stroller had more maturity than the mother!

Thanks for the reply!!!!!

I purchased a number of 7-day base tickets for the family before the latest price increase. We are planning to go later this month. My idea was to hold on purchasing the "Never Expire" option and purchase later if it turns out we've only used a few of the days. I chose the 7-day ticket because...

People are definately getting more rude and self-centered. I guess it shouldn't be too surprising since popular culture idolizes some of the most rude and self-centered people on the planet. Anyway, I think you need to go determined that rude people are'nt going to get to you. I'm going this...

It is really difficult to support a family with $24K for a full-time job, especially with housing prices what they are. If I were in that position, I would seriously consider a career change to something that pays better and do what ever it takes to get there. The company I work for hires...

I have 5 kids, age range from 4 to 18. I have to agree with MMARTELLI, an 8 year old should not be in a stroller. In fact my 4 year old has pretty much outgrown strollers. I've seen bigger kids in strollers, 6 and above and it is a puzzling sight. I think to myself "those parents need to...

I agree that "smacking" a kid in the head could be considered violence, it's probably just the parent venting thier anger. That's bad. Spanking however, administered with love and for the well being of the child, is definately not "violence". In fact I think it's abusive to neglect spanking a...

In the old days, corporal punishment "spanking", done with the right parental motivation and attitude, was a perfectly acceptable method of child discipline and correction for bad behaviour. It worked well for hundreds of generations and produced children who learned to behave and come under...

It is tricky to afford a Disney vacation with a family. I have 5 kids, my wife stay's home to care for them so we are a one income family. We definately can't go every year, but we do manage to make the trek every few years. Sure, I would love to see Disney come up with some kind of "Family...

Agreed that cell phones are the best option, but for those don't have 2 cell phones, or free roaming down at Disney, Multi-use radios are a great alternative to overcrowded, underperforming FRS/GMRS radios. They don't make consumer grade Multi-use radios anymore, but you can still get the...
