It's not nice to pick on the elderly.

You'll have to let me know - your first pick is character attendant isn't it?

I think that job is harder than it looks. Several times during our Christmas trip, the attendant had to rescue the character from overzealous guests... including one little jerk in MK who's father told him to "Pull his tail!" (Tigger), after Tigger "wouldn't say hi to him" as he was trying to walk offstage... :hammer: I felt bad for the attendant b/c she was an older lady (sorry, Betty!) and she had to literally put herself between Tigger and the jerk-off kid trying to pull Tigger's tail. (older kid, looked 12 or 13) After his father told him to... :rolleyes:

quite possibly - maybe you should pack him a bib.....

We stood in line for the grotto once - that was enough...the queue was really hot after a while. This year we'll try to meet Ariel at Norway's princess breakfast. If she's not there, oh well. :shrug: Abby wants the princess autographs she doesn't have yet, which is Snow White, Aurora, Jasmine, Mulan.

This old lady would have decked him ...and the father!

I have the utmost respect for all CMs, no matter what...I'm sure they see some real winners in the course of their day :rolleyes:. Being on vacation doesn't mean being on vacation from manners, or respect, and any of the other things that RESPONSIBLE parents try to teach their children. If either of mine act up, back to the cabin we go.

I always did that with my kids too - and the thing is you really only have to do it once and they'll know you mean business after that.

:eek: Oooo, good thing I wasn't there. I would have had a few words with him!:mad:

But it's really not all that bad. I love being a character attendant. It's so much fun.

Ariel technically is not at breakfast- she is mostly at lunch/dinner. I believe the 4 you mentioned are usually at breakfast, and also in the WS during the day.
