Tonight’s first Christmas party is sold out!

I think this goes beyond looking at a child meltdown even if the only thing that happen was the child being dragged by a harness (wonder what kind of harness it was).

Even if you do have a child meltdown I think most people can tell the difference between that and trying to deal with it and aggression shown towards the child.

I'm going to say this is likely people saw the woman being aggressive and it made them look at the situation differently thus calling authorities. Good call too because clearly she's got issues.

I don't know if most people can discern much. My husband was trying to get our son's attention. He constantly has those darn headphones on. My husband tapped him on the head, and some woman nearby gasped so loud that it sounded like she was having a heart attack. Come on people. Not saying that this situation at the park didn't deserve the attention it got though.

You think? Dude, she slammed the police car with enough force to dent it... using her head.

I was shocked that she didn't pass out.

I’m going on Monday, you think the craze will pass? I’d hate to be stuck with a sold out party. ;_;

The first nights of parties usually sell out. I would *guess* the subsequent parties won't be sold out until later in the season.

I liked the Haunted Mansion tree too, but a lot of the others really don't impress me. Disney is known for their amazing decorating skills and I feel like they could've done a lot better. I'm known to be a tad bit particular about my tree and the decorations just don't feel like they're placed right. I was debating whether or not it was worth going out of my way to see in December, but I think I can safely say if I don't manage to find the time it's not a big deal.

I hadn't planned to walk through this morning after being unimpressed 2 years ago but I was doing Stitch's gift hunt and they hid one of them on thr trail. Still not impreased by yhr trees though I didn't stop to look either but those lanterns are huge and I had to read the sign to know what they were. Mickey's was the only one that waa obvious by looking.

Also for anyone doing the hunt, Stitch is upstairs at uniqlo and inside everywhere. The star wars store couldn't find their buttons which was super annoying sonce rhey were my last stop before the bus so I had to backtrack to another location. Cute idea and free.

Eh I don't really see your example the same as what occurred or what I'm talking about. The PP was discussing a child meltdown. Your kid wasn't haven't a meltdown and you trying to console him by taking him to a more private location (well as private as a bathroom can get) nor was it the opposite where your husband forcifully grabbed your kid dragging him around by the headphones (or item of clothing your son was wearing or something else) trying to get his attention.

And even in the rare instance I could feasible see someone calling the police (speaking towards the woman who gasped in your story) for a kid being tapped on the head in order to get his attention I'm sure you guys would be able to calmly explain what was going on. If you were showing real true aggression towards your kid I'm not sure that type of person that I'm talking about would calmly explain to the police what happened.

This woman appears to have issues. She dragged her kid (and likely in a much different manner than what you see on the videos of kids being dragged from a child harness in Walmart for example where the parent isn't being aggressive but isn't wanting to give into the child) and then handled the stroller in an aggressive manner to the point where the kid fell out and then she slammed her head into a police cruiser denting it....I'm going to say people had a feeling about her and her subsequent actions reenforced that. I wasn't there but it sounds like the woman wasn't really concerned about the child. JMHO. I'm thinking that if your husband showed that he wasn't using brunt force to tap your child that he was still exhibiting awareness.

In any case glad someone reported it.

PHOTOS: See Every Character Tree in the 2018 Disney Springs Christmas Tree Trail

That Haunted House tree! Many of the others, meh.....

Sorry for my slightly off topic question but I figure @rteetz will know either because you were just here or had heard. Are the slinky dog ride pics working? We are still missing ours from sunday and I don't want to stop in to ask if there's no point since there's generally a line. Thanks!

Interesting. The first time we rode it was just starting to rain. Hard. The rain felt like bullets hitting our faces. I'm rather glad not to have seen that photo.

We'll probably check it out on the night we are there for a Ragland Rd dinner at the end of the month. I wonder who was tasked with putting the trees together?

A cast member’s 14 year old son?

Disney+ ? Well it certainly is a safe choice.
