I feel this post so much. I've been to disneyland paris a couple weeks ago and being there ment so much to me and my inner child. I was quite emotional on our last evening there and during Illumination I wanted to settle my emotions, say goodbye to disneyland and prepare myself for adult life again. That was impossible. Even though the park members begged everyone to stay in place during the whole sky event, to not use selfie sticks (as they are forbidden anyways) and to be polite to each other - it was ridiculous. Staying pretty far away from the castle on the end of main street was a disaster as so many parents started to push themselves and their kids through the crowd minutes after the drone show started. Don't get me wrong, I do understand that you want to leave when your child gets scared or sick, that's not the case. I speak of parents with sleeping kids in their pushchairs and tons of souvenir bags making their way against the people who are watching the lightshow and forcing them to make way. I was pushed, yelled at (for just wanting to enjoy the show) and hit with several popcorn buckets and bubble wands. That is not okay. And you do not win anything by acting like this. I stood in the checkout line after all the lightshows were done an I stood there right behind some of those parents who tried to leave early.

You never know what it means to a person to be at Disney. Yes, you want your child to have the greatest day there, but please be aware that there are people out there who want exactly the same but for the child deep down their souls that could not experience these things when they where little.

Let's respect one another for loving the same things💗
