Somehow I survived childhood without ever going to a Disney resort—and my parents could have easily afforded it.
Parents today are stupid.
We have a theme park in the Pittsburgh area over a century old that features Mr. Roger's neighborhood. The rides are decent, the food and beverages are only slightly overpriced. There is a water park included for the price of admission. Parking is free. People actually spend almost as much time on the rides as they do waiting in line.
I really don't understand why people will pay triple or more to spend most of their time waiting in line at a Disney Park.
