ok after this i'm going to drop this because i think you are taking this to seriously. but being a woman i need to have one final say. you have missed my point entirely i do agree with you in the every day sense. as in you need to keep your kids from getting to lazy like not watching to much tv or playing video games for hours at a time.they need to do chores but on vacation it should be different the idea that any kid would rather lay in bed at a hotel when they have the best amusement park in the world just down the street is just silly. and would it be the end of the world to sleep till noon and stay at the park till midnight? are there teeth going to fall out if they forget to brush them one day or shock two? i'm not saying to rent a stroller just so a 12 year old can be pushed around the park.i'm just saying if he or she got into a stroller for a few min.'s with a younger sibling it isn't the end of the world. your kids will not turn into ax murderers if you just relax a few rules while on vacation. i guess when my kids are grown i want them to remember that i made them responsible for them selfs. i taught them to work hard and not give up but i also want them to remember the times we laughed so hard i couldn't catch my breath. when we all slept till noon and had the biggest ice cream sundays for breakfast in the food court of the hotel. or when we were just being silly and i told them now its your turn to push me in the carriage and my son laughed so hard i thought he was going to pass out. sometimes the best moments are when you're doing something silly. ok i'm done i'll step off my soap box now but maybe next time you go to WDW for one day you could try it and see what happens.
