hope1976 I agree - it is nice when they update, but sometimes they do too much for the general public to handle all at once. Sounds like with so many people missing Horizons, they found a way to bring part of that back :).

Have any of you done a Grand Gathering in Walt Disney World? This is where you need 8 or more paying guests in your group. They have some perks such as a little special treatment and access to some great grand gathering...

One of my favorite things about traveling to Disney World is the amazing range of hotels I end up staying in! My all time favorite is Disney's Polynesian Resort, but I've also fallen in love with the Wilderness Lodge, Animal...

is it ok to tell the kid what he will be when he grow up?

hope1976 I definitely do NOT think parents should choose their child's courses for college. College is the transition from childhood to adulthood, so the independence is needed. If you force your child to take what YOU want them to in college, they may resent you for...

hope1976 I do agree he's got a long road ahead of him. I definitely think he will be one of the next few going home. He's such a big guy, which I never realized until he was on here. He does look very awkward out there dancing because he doesn't seem as flexible. He...

hope1976 I agree with letting them be kids. The only reason they're being signed up this year is because they've been begging to do it. I'm just glad they want to do these types of things instead of watching television all the time. A great way for them to get out and...

hope1976 That would make life so much easier to have a pool at home! I would love that. Maybe then our kids wouldn't be begging to join so many things. This is the first year, so we'll see how they like being in everything.

hope1976 I also did like her, but it just didn't seem like this was something for "her". She seemed so awkward on the dance floor and very anxious about something.

We wan to take our kids to Disney world, but the cost is just extreme for us. Does anyone know of any place you can find a deal. Is it truly worth the expense anyway.

hope1976 I would say definitely go. There's no experience like what you can take away from Walt Disney World with your family. To experience the magic of Disney through your own child's eyes is an amazing experience that can't be matched. The cost really isn't as...

hope1976 I always stay on-site. Having been there at least 25 times, I couldn't imagine not staying in a Disney World resort hotel. The benefits from staying on-site are worth every penny in my eyes. In fact, when you compare some of the prices of the off-site hotels,...
