Policy Changes at Disneyland/Disney World: No More Wagons/Large Strollers and No More Smoking
- Thread starter BringBackSonics
- Start date
I have 3 kids. If I want to bring my newborn, that is my business. How is bringing a newborn being an asshole? My wife is supposed to stay home with baby? You don't understand anything if you don't have kids.
That's actually pretty clever, as long as it meets the size requirements it seems like it IS working.
The ban isn't working so well, and this is so creepy
I'm sure there'll be a whole market for perfectly "Disneyland sized" kid carriers.
I'm not going to get into this fight, but taking a newborn into a crowded place with all the potential for an accident to happen is a bad look.
Also, don't no kid shame me. I don't need kids to know that bringing a newborn is not a good idea and only pisses off everyone around you. A crying baby in line is just as bad as vaping in line.
what"? That's VASTLY less intrusive than wagons, and if they actually have 3 kids is totally fine. The wagons people bring are bigger than that for like one fucking kid.

Also anyone saying you don't notice them, sorry I've been going to disney almost once a year since I was like 5. The difference in stroller footprint from 20 years ago to today is absurd, and it's not just because of the number of guests.
You...you realize we're talking about Disneyland right? A place designed for kids, that everyone brings babies to.
If there is one thing I have learned on the internet, is that there are some that would argue with that statement which boggles my mind. You have kidless adult couples who honeymoon at these places.
I mean, I'm a kidless adult, I go to Disney without kids, but like....there are babies EVERYWHERE, to come to the internet and pretend that's somehow wrong is mind blowing to me. I have never once been inconvenienced because of a baby at Disneyland specifically.
I meant to say kidless adults who expect kids to not be at a place like Disneyland. If adults are going to Disneyland and have a problem with kids being there, I am at a loss for words.
did someone just call another an asshole for bringing a baby to Disneyland? Disneyland? Like if it was a Six Flags I'd maybe understand...
lol buddy, what world do you live in
you get mad when kids cheer during Avengers, too?
I waited until my kids were old enough to be walking and talking before we went to Disneyland for the first time because I felt like it was a waste of money to take babies/toddlers to a vacation geared towards children before they can really enjoy it, plus babies on a vacation is just less vacation for me and my wife and we like Disneyland too.
There were so many people pushing kids in various vehicles that I sometimes felt like my family was in some kind of a private fastlane.
If I had a special needs kid I'd lug around whatever it took all day any day anywhere, but for perfectly healthy kids, some of those giant strollers/carriages/rickshaws/whateverthefuck look absolutely ridiculous to deal with.

A newborn has no concept that it's at Disneyland. Why expose a newborn to that much noise, germs, sunlight, etc? I think 4 years & up is where it really starts to make sense.

My daughter was two and half and she was having an absolute blast 🤷♂️
Not sure if this is about the newborn or the selfie stick. The selfie stick was ON THE RIDE when I got hit by it. See my response below about newborns. In both cases, people were being assholes.
Love your work, but that response is just a bad take.
Exactly. Disney's for little kids so sure that's not a big deal, but babies? Way too much for them to handle. Then when they start crying it pisses other people off.
Bringing your newborns to theme parks that aren't something designed for them like Legoland is just being selfish. You're not thinking about the kid or the people around you, just how you feel. As the original guy I responded to said "I'll do what I want."
I think one or two is probably the baseline. Just old enough to know what's going on.
One of my earliest memories of going to Disney World was a parking lot tram we were on stopping dead for a good half an hour because some couple had an 'altercation' which resulted in the father tossing the baby stroller with child in it off the tram. Try explaining that to a 6-year-old. The happiest place on Earth y'all.
My 32 year-old adult cousin honeymooned at Disney and goes there three times a year. She could have travelled the world multiple times over lol

A co-worker of mine that lives in seattle has the annual pass heh. They actually went to the Disneyland hotel and had Mickey and Minnie from disneyland be at their wedding for half the day
Was just at Disney World this Monday. There are still a lot of strollers but didn't see any of the wagon types which was fine.
My real problem was many people with strollers seemed to think that made them special and I was either clipped in the elbow or smashed in the back of my feet several times.
The smoking ban worked well. With the exception of Disney World itself (we went to Animal Kingdom and Hollywood Studios too) the smoking areas were outside the parks but not so far out you felt you were punished for parking.
Going out to smoke wasn't all that annoying since reentry is really fast now a days since it a works on nfc and fingerprints so admittion lines move fast.

Heat killed me as a kid, so as much as my instinct is to hate on people pushing big shaded carts, I probably would've loved my parents for it. I've never been to a Disney park, but I've heard plenty about the wait times and other fun if you can't afford the top-tier tickets.
SUV strollers being banned is a good thing
back in the OLD DAYS strollers were "normal" sized
The worst is in public transit when a mother enters with a giant sized SUV stroller .... LOL

Disney World is the most magical place on Earth actually and that sounds magical haha. What happened then
People take babies everywhere! This is not new! I travel with my kids and live my life how I want to live it! I am sorry if that inconveniences you. I will live my life the way I damn please. I am not taking my baby to a movie, but to the happiest place on earth!
If you got problems with a baby at an amusement park largely designed around families then that's entirely on you. Maybe consider becoming a shut-in because that's the only way you're gonna get by without being annoyed by people.
Just as bad as vaping in line, that's some nice manure you're piling up.
