Sometimes people are so aggressive + rude . I really feel sorry for their children . When people are this rude to me I always smile + look at them thinking I'm glad I don't have their life as it must be pretty bad !!
Rude is ugly !!!

I too have had MANY problems with tour groups from South America. I've seen things that would just frost you! The worst is how they treat people and expect to be in front for all shows, lines, etc. I understand that part of their behavior is due to cultural differences; however, to be rude to people and to start arguements is beyond what is acceptible. Also, it makes me so mad for people to assume that they are the only ones wanting to see a show...Hello? We are all desiours of seeing what's going on and it totally angers me when people are rude, make rude comments and try to force you out to get themselves in! I always find a castmember and tell tehm. More often than not, the situation is remedied. Other times when its escalated to loud voices and shouting at me, the cast member will get Disney security and as long as you can prove your point, they will escort the person away. This I've seen a couple of times. Specifically when at Disneyland some guy started cussing me out for wallking over the suspension bride on Tom Sawyer's island to fast. It made it wobbly for him. He was escorted off the island and, as I later found out, out of the park. I'm sorry that at times we all eperience such nonsense.

It's like when some people get out of there cars to go to the parks they automatically think they are gods and that they can do what ever they want at what ever cost.

I have been stood in front of at some shows also...(and I was in a wheelchair)

You have to realize some people are just rude and dont care or think of others, Some people dont realize there doing it.

People have no right to touch other people (without consent)

Its a hard subject many parades and shows can be troublesome if its standing room only. If you were there first I believe its your space and if budged in front of I just manuver around the person that budged in front of me. Words with the person or getting physical is not going to solve it.

Thank goodness most people ive met at WDW are very polite and friendly.

Dont let one bad apple spoil the whole bunch I like to say.

I have never encountered rude people like that. Thank god. But I have seen people like that. The way I see it is, if they're child is smaller than me and is under the age of like...6, I will let them in front of me but just the little kid. And that usually is what happens because I know that little kids love the whole magic aspect of it. But when a 20 year old is like, can u move i say no...I was here first. I hate it when people spoil that for you. The only place I ever encountered rude people was in Storyland in NH. This lady made me get out of the shoe and sit with my cousin. It was like the dumbo ride and I was...13 but still. and the workers were like, can u please get out of the shoe, the lady didn't have a disability nor a disabled kid. It was very rude. Ok, I am done ranting now.

Probably...

Kids should always come first (thats my opinion) even though some children dont deserve it...I think its up to the parents to parent there child and teach them right from wrong and to be polite and courteous. After all kids learn by observing us adults and how we handle things.

well if you show up early and get a good seat i do not think you should give it up for someone who lolly gags and shows up 2 seconds b4 the show. I have been in these arguments b4, i wil let little kids move and squeeze in but never make it so i cant see.

She was wrong !!! and no one sits down....lol

Well said DP, I couldn't have said it better myself. We're all there to have a good time and quite frankly if I can help or am willing to do something nice for someone I will, if not, well sorry.

That is exactly what I do!

I just want to interject here that folks who are rude don't only come from a specific continent, country or hemisphere for that matter. They come from everywhere...including right here in the good old US of A. Rudeness knows no geographical boundries.

I have had problems with some people who have strollers... o my goodness, they think they own the whole place! I have left DL with bruises from strollers. I have also had problems with pushy parents, the ones who refuse to wait in line for characters and shows, they want to always cut the lines because, and this is a quote from a woman "you are older, you can wait" ummm... i have been waiting and no i don't want to let you cut in front of me. If you are willing to wait in line, it's no big deal. I had this really adorable little girl in front of me in line to see Cinderella, well her brother was in line for Belle and he was up next (we were about 6 people behind) and I offered to hold her spot while she went to take a picture with Belle, then she came back and got in line... that I have no problem with. It's really the parents that can make my day unenjoyable and i'm sure their kids' day as well.

You are so true that they come from all over, including my own backyard. I was responding to someone who stated that they problems with South American tour groups. Sorry if anyone took offense.

Some people need a nap or need to find someplace to relax. Going to Disney and walking around a lot can be very tiring and if you have kids it can become a chore. Some people are also just rude no matter what. This lady was also pregnant, so ... (I won't say any more

)While I can understand she wanted her kids to be able to see the show she should have gotten there earlier or found a better spot.

Disney Mom · #30 (**permalink**) 04-14-2005, 07:19 PM

Oh my gosh! They totally tried to ruin your Magic! We always stand for the shows & fireworks! Last time we were at Epcot we found a great spot really early for Illuminations. Of course right before the show started these people pushed their kids right in front of us! What are you supposed to do? Yell at little kids? Get there early & save a spot!
