    I’m a parent We’re not going to Disney it’s a fuckin rip off. If you feel you’re a bad parent because you didn’t bring your kid to Disney seek therapy.

      To a little kid, it’s a whole different perspective. Peer pressure is an ugly thing. Your kid can feel ashamed or insecure just because their friends goes to Disney and they’re not.

      Make sure they understand that too, not just yourself.

        It’s a good opportunity to teach your kid about peer pressure then, and how they don’t need to do everything their friends do.

        100% agree. It’s marketed way too well to kids.

        My cousin’s didn’t understand what Disney had that was different from other parks nearby, but “knew” it was some amazing perfect fun place filled with adventure. You get there and stand in line most of the time watching people with more money pass you by riding the rides.
