I did the same thing with my youngest as well. The higher I threw her the harder she laughed.KevinPage said:I've been launching my daughter into the air and carrying her over my head since what seems like day 1, so she is used to being up high.

Mister Toad said:I took my son on Rock N' Roller coaster when he was 5. He was turned down by the CM because he was about 3/4" too short.... we walked over to "Scoops," grabbed about a dozen napkins, folded them into his sneakers and walked back. To the CM's amazement, my son was now 1/2" taller than the requirement!
HE LOVED IT! We went on about a dozen times.
Yellow Shoes said:I must be doing something right, because that kid was nearly paralyzed by guilt. "Mom, what if they catch us? Will they throw us out of the park?"
I know exactly what you mean. I think the best we can hope for is that we don't mess them up anymore than our parents messed us up.KevinPage said:The joys or parenthood - damned if you do, damned if you don't. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Mister Toad said:If this wasn't a Disney board, I'd tell you where to stick your opinion. I am the same father who bought the safest car on the road and straps each of his kids (including the one who is now almost 8) into a 5 point car seat. He'll be in it until he's 18 if I have my say.
Parenting is a matter of judgement, and in my judgement, my son being 1/2" under the seat limit was not putting him in physical harm. So Goofy you pal.
DisneyPhD said:Little PhD is a shorty, and a rather timid one at that so she was 4 years old when she rode Goffy for the 1st. time. She loved it. She is a bit like the OP said, was very still and quiet. That is her normal recation at 1st for most things. After she warms up she is totally differnt. She road it 5 times in a row after that (her sister was asleep in the stroller.)
This next trip in Jan she will finally be 40 inces (on a good day, but we have a few months to go and shoes!) Of course we don't want to push her into anything, but she does want to ride Sorin and we think she will love it. Last trip she was too short. We epxlained it to her and when we were wacthing the France movie she told me "this is MY Sorin." I thought that was pretty cute. She says she wants to ride the train ride too (BTM.)
