One of the best things I have read about this is:
"The heart of the ADA is tailoring the modification to the needs of the guests impairment. To be fair, this is not easy to do when federal regulations purport to prohibit Disney from asking a guest meaningful questions about the guests impairment - See more at: http://blog.wdwinfo.com/2014/04/04/new-lawsuit-attacks-disneys-new-disability-access-service/#sthash.vSHGvdoa.dpuf"
And that is the heart of the problem-the law. Companies cannot ask for proof of a disability, they cannot ask for information about the disability so they have to create a programme to cover a wide range of disabilities both visible and not, both physical and mental. It needs to accommodate these guest without being too advantageous otherwise it will be abused which disadvantages everyone.
