    confused From a child to an adult - rant warning !

    I'm confused !
    When does a child become an adult - officially ?
    Seems to be as soon as it pops out of the mother these days !
    I booked our Florida theme park tickets/passes last night and apparently, my two kids are now adults at the ages of 12 (13 on sunday) and 10 !
    Disney and Seaworld both state over 9 years old they pay adult prices .
    They used to have to be over 12 ( adult at 12 ?) years old for adult price ! The 2 parks mentioned are just examples of many.
    It's not just in America, the UK is just as bad.

    Why don't we have a set age range across the board as to when a child becomes an adult ? 9 is just plain stupid !
    12 ain't much better, 16 sounds more sensible.

    I know i have 2 choices, pay it or don't pay it.
    You simply can't take your kids to Orlando and not do the theme parks, but i think this will be the last time we do.
    More 'all inclusives' from now on me thinks !

    Rant over.


    Have consideration for the deaf, if you're gunna fart, make it smell !

    Children are 3-11 in Paris.

    I remember it being very expensive in DW Florida even for water and those free water fountains are well hidden.

    It has gotten very expensive over the last few years since 9/11.
    Those water fountains taste like shi7 don't they ? I'd rather spend the $ and enjoy what i'm drinking.

    On a brighter note, it'll be spend - spend - spend on all those lovely car cleaning goodies !!!

    You spoil sport _ZS_

    Once was enough for me. Now an adult theme park like Las Vegas is OK.
