I have a 9 year old daughter with an auditory processing disorder. She looks like a normal kiddo (no visible disability) but is terrified of certain sounds. Just being outside Test Track makes her cry (I think it is the decibel level). She has big ambitions to ride things like ToT, RnRC, BTMRR etc, but often gets up to the rides and hears the noises and bails out. We have always done the rider swap in the past so Dad could ride with the boys while I sat with dd, then I would use the rider swap ticket to go ride with the boys. We went last May and because she is now over the height limit for those rides, they were very hesitant to give out the rider swap tickets. She is making great strides and I hope this in a non-issue on our upcoming trip in November, but I am trying to make plans now just in case. I know that there have been many changes with the GAC, but I have never used one, so I am not very familiar with them anyway. Would obtaining one of these help us in any way? We don't need to skip lines or use an alternate entrance, we just want to be able to enjoy the rides with the boys without forcing her to wait through standby times twice for each ride she can't do. Make sense? Thanks in advance!
