DLP is only partially owned by Disney Parks. It’s unlikely they’d pull anything for Florida out of that
they don't mention in any of the articles that Disney compensated them with any freebies etc, which they probably would have mentioned if they had, to show that they had made an effort to resolve the upset caused - it simply says Disney had contacted the family to apologise for the response they had received, which had contained misinformation. as much as Hayley kicked up a huge fuss and dragged it into the papers, I can't imagine they would have done much more than maybe offer Noah the princess dress-up experience for free - certainly not those golden passes which would allow them all a lifetime of free entry, as the golden passes themselves are only awarded to a few honoured individuals - and lifetime passes cost $40,000 per guest! $200,000 would be an excessive amount of freebies to dole out to one family as an apology for an incident which - in the grand scheme of things - was pretty minor. sure, it shouldn't have happened, but if it was misinformation that informed the reply she received, it was the result of human error, it's not that it was a discrimatory rule within the park that only girls could take part in the experience. she'd have to have something absolutely massive to use against them - an issue they feared would badly tarnish Disney's reputation if she publicised it - for them to make such a dramatic gesture.
while people may have read the articles and rolled their eyes at the gender inequality and the ridiculousness of telling a little kid they couldn't wear a princess dress, the vast majority of the world would simply turn the page and forget about it - it wasn't such a scandal that it would actually stop people booking holidays to Disney or cancel holidays or boycott the brand, so there is no reason for them to have pacified her with such a dramatic gesture - as if that were the case, people would be kicking off over similar kinda issues regularly, knowing they'd get something out of it. i did find it interesting that she dedicated a number of stories to her complaints about the staff at the parks, and that many of them were rude and/or unfriendly, or didn't smile and say hello, in a way that supposedly "ruined the magic", because as much as she said she shared her disappointment because she wanted to give an honest representation of their trip, it also wouldn't surprise me if she is actively looking out for negatives to add to a list, and dropping hints ahead of potentially making a complaint when she gets home in the hope of getting some of the holiday refunded. perhaps I'm being cynical, but i wouldn't put it past her.
i have no idea how they pay for all these expensive Disney trips, but i think it is far likely to be a combination of credit cards etc, and that behind the smokescreen of
Disney magic
, they will soon be back home and struggling, up to their eyeballs in debt - sharing screenshots of her bank statement to show that they are penniless as she was a few months ago.
I thought she was now Piper. Seems odd as she’d be the first to get angry about deadnaming her kid
and secondly if she felt as strong about it as she made out then why the hell hasn't she boycotted Disney, she is defi a weird one her
