Husband and I and our two little ones were walking past the American Adventure on Sunday in what we though was a good family clean theme park. What I heard from a grown gentleman walking in the opposite direction past us was appalling and not fitting for what your parks stand for. He said and I kid you not out loud in front of family and children alike the C word. At first I was like in shock thinking surely someone especially grownup would never say such thing at a family place like Disney. After a few second it register that is exactly what he say. I turned to my husband who also heard. My husband just mumble to me to ignore and lets keep walking but I wanted to find security to get that man out of your park. We kept walking for awhile and by the time we reach Morocco I had to stop and sit down. We found a quite spot in Morocco and I ask my children had they heard what the man had say. They did not so I had to explain what was said and why nobody should ever in a family place like Disney use such language. There needs to be more security informing people that Disney is a place for the young and the family and nobody should be talking as if they are in some bar or locker room with the fellows talking filth. It was pure filth what he say. Neither of my children had ever heard this word until Disney of all places. This should not happen. Please do something or have more security around the park to keep an ear open for filth in front of families who come to create memories not hear swears. It was two gentlemen around two thirty yesterday afternoon but not exact sure. They were walking past America Adventure in the World Showcase toward direction of Italy when he shout to his friend YOU ARE FULL OF C I will not repeat the rest but it was loud enough to be hear by us who were across path going to direction of Morocco and Japan. We could not find any security and did not want to bother other cast mem not responsible for this. But please remind people who come to this place that Disney is family fun for all ages. Thank you.

If people can get thrown out of Disney World for cussing the parks would be empty maybe it's time for you to grow up and if you don't like what you're hearing keep on walking or don't butt in and listen to other people's conversations.

Ma'am, while I agree with you in principle, I don't want to live in a country where the Language Police have any kind of power. People should censor themselves depending on their environment, but people will be people. Best to just learn to deal with it.

Wait a second, profanity is grounds to get tossed out and hearing someone as you are walking by or sitting eating an ice cream is not listening in.

That is fact. No one needs hear that on a vacation especially at Disney, it's not a nightclub or one's home.

I know this whole thread is a troll thread, but I do want to mention why swearing at a theme park is not ok.

If you have kids, you get this, and if not, you don't, but what happens when an elementary schooler learns a word of cuss is that they say it, loudly, in class and then there be consequences. Detention, lines, phone calls, apologies, etc. So, yea, not your freedom of speech to use the C word in an any location likely to be packed with kids.

Fun fact, even the word "crap" is a bad word in elementary school. Consequences for that one too. ...learned that the hard way as I was at fault for thinking that was a good soft word of cuss. Nope. Wrong. D'oh!

If your kids didn’t hear anything why the (swear word) would repeat the word to them. Makes you a bit of drama queen and someone that wants attention. 🤔🤔

That country and free speech defense is a cop out, we don't need teach our little kids how NOT to behave. My 19 year old said the F word in front of me and his mother, I came down on him hard. He can't get in that habit or it may slip at work or in an important place. If an adult can't hold his mouth in front of children at Disney they simply have no class. Best to learn to deal with it is NOT what we should do at all. Disney made this rule because they are not going to just deal with it and I applause that decision. If we let things go where does it end?

In Disney no profanity is a no brainer. This is not a freedom of speech issue. Making Offensive language against the rules is not the same as making an idea against the rules. Say something with a swear word I can say the same thing not using the profanity with the same or even more impact by using my brain. One person gets tossed using the F word, the others says something with the same meaning not using that word and moves on and our kids learn how to communicate effectively. Kids mimic us, some of us don't ask to be examples but the fact is we all are whether we want to be or not. If a kid hears someone using the F bomb at Disney of all places and that is okay then where is that word not supped to be used?

It's just madding that anyone adult would think it's okay to swear like that in earshot of any kids at all in any location. Do what you want at home with your own kids, but teach them to act right out in public.

If you're THIS upset over "crap" being said at a theme park, id hate to see the fit youd throw in general public.

Oh please. :cautious: Context matters. Different situations call for a modicum of common sense and perspective. The (fictional) situation described by the OP is a far cry from someone verbally abusing a CM or letting loose a loud string of profanities in a queue. If you actually think that hearing someone tell another person in their group that they are full of crap is grounds for expulsion from the park, then I would consider your outrage way out of proportion.

Content does not matter, I disagree it is not right to use profanity to get a point across first of all, that is what people that can't verbalize do or are flustered in the moment or simply use the profanity so much it is part of their daily words and that was me for many years. I was 100% wrong and it took me years to stop using swear word all the time. Having 6 kids changed my view on that, they are sponges and meaning doesn't matter to a little kid, they mimic the words. Content, content that the kids don't even understand does not matter at all. All they hear is the profanity. In the context of Disney parks you are even further off base.

If my 7 year is sitting on a bench and a guy walks by smiling talking to a friend having a great time being really nice and says, WOW that girl is "F ing"hot! You are telling me that is okay at a Disney park within ear shot of my kid or any kid? That's enough. Hey dad what does that F ing word mean, that guy looks really happy it must be a word that is great to use all the time. Why at Disney should I even have to deal with that?

I am not saying a person should be kicked out for that doing it once in passing moment, even though that is wrong, but to say to him him, hey please don't use that word there are kids around. I have done that out in the world and been told to F off, totally classless people.. A decent person would day oh man sorry yeah you are right forget about the kids.

As a construction worker, a project manager for construction workers and a woodworking shop worker my entire life(as well as being a stay at home dad for 4 of my 6 kids the last 20 years working at night ) I am betting I swore way more than most people and I regret it. And I still regret it every time I do it, but I sure the heck am not going to defend myself for swearing at a Disney park or in front of any little kids!!

I said enough on this, my opinion is clear. At Disney there is just no upside and never an okay time to using profanity other than being in my room or out of earshot of everyone else that could hear me and even then I feel stupid when I do it. It is a tough habit to break.
