Guardian View on Going to Disney World Childless

[YorkshireT]

Guardian does a piece on the Facebook rant about no childless couples in Disney World-

"While this Facebook post is quite old, someone on Twitter recently dug it up and started taking the mickey. It has now sparked a furious online debate about whether childfree people should be allowed to enter Disney-branded parks. My own thoughts on the matter are that something is very wrong with you if you are childfree and want to spend a small fortune surrounded by other people’s kids in a mouse-infested amusement park. "

Thoughts?

I agree without our daughter or in the future maybe grandkids no way would i goto disney/universal just as a couple, as above surrounded by other peoples kids in a hot crowded very expensive park.


florida yes but no parks

I'd go to Epcot and universal without kids.

Stopping people going to parks because they dont have kids is draconian, it's up to them.

We do Busch Sea World and Universal with just us both only do Disney now withnthe GDKs or first timer

I never did Disneyworld when my children were young - too busy paying the bills to be able to afford it. We went as a family when the ‘kids’ were 16, 18 and 22. I thought it was too late and we’d missed the Magical Holiday moment. Couldn’t have been more wrong - my adult children became little ones again for a few weeks and loved everything about WDW! It was so lovely to see my 22 year old son throw his arms around Winnie The Pooh and give him a huge hug. I have no idea why people think they can judge and decide what’s best for others. Why does everyone have to have an opinion about everyone else? Personally, I like to live and let live. Maybe it’s time to take a step back and just concentrate on themselves and their own families

I went for my 21st, no kids came and I loved it.
Its funny how different social media platforms are using this piece for different arguments, i am seeing lots of 'silly woman thinking she is entitled to things just because she has had a baby.'

I would think the ‘facebook post’ (rant) would put a different slant on the guardian article if posted.

Unfortunately due to the language involved that’s not possible.

My husband and I have no children for various reasons and we have been to Disney and Universal just the two of us BECAUSE WE LOVE DISNEY AND UNIVERSAL 😊😊😊

Don’t understand why it’s “very wrong” according to the article.

[catherinesian]

We are a childless couple going to WDW.

Quite frankly I couldn't give a toss what other people think. I work damned hard and holiday wherever I want, not where society tells me to
