Well, obviously, this is no longer the place for me. Never lose the magic my friends. I will see you in the park.
I'm sorry Baloo!!! I appreciate what you said and feel that you were just asking everyone to be respectful. Unfortunately the comments on your post started going to a topic we aren't suppose to discuss on here. I think thats the reason it got reported. 😞 I will miss seeing your posts but will still find you in the Parks and get that great Baloo hug!!! - caramiapoohAKAface

For this reason I have stopped conversing on here. The constant nip picky rude comments have taken the pure joy of sharing the love for all things Disney away. I myself have been questions, ridiculed and joked at. The only reason Ive come back is to read Baloo's post. Theres no reason for me to visit anymore. You Bullies (and you know who you are) should be ashamed of yourselves. - MarryPoppinss

Have you ever noticed on the Jungle Cruise, just before the elephant pool, that there is a statue of the elephant god Ganesh (or Ganesha)? Did you know no jokes are said about this statue? If it is referenced at all it is only by name. Why? Out of respect of course for the people that hold this god sacred. It does not matter what the skipper believes or does not believe. It matters not the skippe More...
Well said! I think Walt felt it is important to be respectful of each others' beliefs; it's a small world after all!!!!✨ - TinkerSchelle

(Guest Assistance Cards). I want to share some information regarding Guest Assistance Cards. Disneyland is not only required to comply with ADA standards but also strongly desires to make the park inviting, accessible and enjoyable for “all guest of all ages from everywhere”. This is a monumental task of course but one that we are up too. The challenge is to give all our guest the best experie More...
Thank you Randy! I hope others take the time to read this and realize that as CMs we are following the rules as trained and as specific to our attraction(s). We do not intend to make things more difficult for our guests! Sometimes that's just how it ends up. I try to be courteous by informing guests where to go and what their line looks like up ahead. Educate and accommodate! - IDVandalSkipperCM
1326.2 #61 2:58PM
Thank you! I most recently read a post where a guest was ridiculed by people waiting in line because they had a GAC and bypassed the line. First, people shouldn't judge. Just because you can't see a reason for their GAC doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I have DJD and some days I feel like I can walk up the steepest street in San Francisco...other days I can barely walk to the restroom. I have been quite humbled by my condition, and have learned that you can't judge a persons ability or disability by looking at them. The last time we were in the park we saw an older man with a pomeranian service dog. My kids didn't understand how a little POM could help someone. Some people have anxiety and their companions help them remain calm. Disneyland is a magical place that so many people love.... It takes a great amount of patience and respect to wait your turn regardless of where your turn in line starts...*stepping down from soap box ☺ - 2BeignetOrNot2Beignet

Hello, I was in the Army and I have PTSD. I know there are two stamps, a wheelchair and two arrows. Ive been to City Hall asking them if I can get a GAC. They keep trying to give me a pass with the wheelchair stamp. I have no use or need for that particular stamp as I do not need a wheelchair or want one. Can anyone help me out, I'm going there tomorrow. - drewhitman69

I have been accused of using Disney as an escape. Guilty as charged. I run to a place that is safe, clean and beautiful. It is full of interesting characters, thrilling adventures and peaceful hideaways. I am not running away from anything, I am running to a happy place. And I will do it again tomorrow.
I wish I could find a portal to Disneyland and end up right next to the castle - BaseballMickey_CM

It is sad that the abuse of the GAC system is rampant. I see it EVERYDAY. It is unfortunate that people are rude, mean and discourteous even in the Magic Kingdom. However, I want each and every guest to get the most from their visit here. I want them to know no bounds, no restrictions, have no cares. Disney works very hard to make the attractions accessible to everyone. If that means a few guest More...
I am very grateful there is a GAC for those that truly need it. I hope the GAC abusers feel disgusted with themselves when they look at the person behind them in line who really needs the help. - Linzee

I truly believe that people who lie about these things will pay for it in the end. It may be that they will eventually end up in the condition they've lied about or have a loved on end up experiencing it themselves. I feel it's playing with fire to tell these kind if lies. Same goes for people who lie about someone dying to get out of work or whatever. It is not a good thing to do. - aidensmama 339.3 #447 8:32PM
We are grateful as well. My oldest son(6) was diagnosed with a form of brittle bone disease and he doesn't walk the greatest or is able to stand for long periods of time. Looking at Connor you can't tell he has anything wrong. We received some stares and comments the last time we were there. It's a shame the way some people think that a disability has to be seen to be believed. Connor loves disneyland and wishes he could run around like the "normal" kids his age do, but he knows he can't but does his best anyway just to prove he is "normal" too. Sorry for the rant this is just something that is close to my heart. - foobeka
