This post is so old and I'm not sure why it is going viral again.

See - that was my first thought too. However as a "senior" mom (meaning that I've raised three of my own offspring into functional adults) I thought it might come off a bit condescending to someone who clearly can not even deal with a single 3 year old. Not that I am judging her, but I am SO judging her. And those functional millennial adults of mine love Disney enough to travel there because I didn't tell them that lines were too long on our vacations.

I could rant on this for hours. Someone should make a website about how great Disney is for grown-ups. mickey Oh wait....

the whole thing cracks me up. My favorite part is she told her kid no to a pretzel because the line was too long but blamed the girl when her son cried when he didn't get one.

Either - buy your son a darn pretzel or teach him that you can't always get what you want.

The way I see it, the parent has to teach the child that you sometimes need to wait for things and find productive ways to pass the time. I know that can be hard given today's speedy environment with technology but not everything is fast like we want and that's the reality we begrudgingly have to accept.

It's so ridiculous she blamed others. It's not like the person waved the pretzel in the child's face as an insult and bragged about it. I mean, if you were really that desperate to get a pretzel but saw the line being too long, then why not go to another stand? Last I checked, there's more than one place that sells pretzels in the parks.
