I’m infrequent on the Radford tattle and don’t follow them much now, they just annoy me. However, after reading the comments on the disability passes being used, I can’t help but comment.
I think disability passes are great for children and adults who need them (I’m not just talking Disney here, just theme parks in the UK) but I also think some people take the P - and yes I know too well that some disabilities are hidden. I have a son with diagnosed autism, undiagnosed adhd, as well as high anxiety levels and sensory processing disorder, his disability isn’t always obvious - he struggled to queue when he was younger but manages just fine now as a pre teen. When we’ve been out and about I’ve been asked (by people I know) why we don’t use queue jumps, I say because he can queue, I understand that many Sen chislren cannot do this happily. I know someone who admits her children are fine queuing but uses a queue jump just because they are available and she doesn’t want to wait around. My point being I think some people use the system even if their children can queue because it is available and less face it convenient and faster whereas I know people with genuine struggles who are too shy to ask for accommodations. I don’t know much about Sues kids needs, so maybe I shouldn’t comment but I do know that most people with SEN children wouldn’t choose Disney Florida for their first choice holiday due to the heat, noise, crowds and time travel etc, many of us barely manage a caravan holiday in the UK!

As well it being not relatable at all how often she goes away!
