    Having been a little kid once, I literally never felt any urge or need to go to Disney land/world and was never once bullied or pressured to go.

    This is a made-up issue.

      How old are you? Different times, different perspective, different issues.

      Each generations have its own issues.

      Back in the 90s, if one kid doesn’t have a Gameboy he’s happy to watch other kids play. But now, if one kid doesn’t have the stupid Stanley Cup, they’re targeted for bullying.

      You can’t assume your own experience and emotions is the same as everyone else.

        A Gameboy and Stanley cup are both items other kids would see you with. Going on a vacation away from all your peers seems like a weird way for kids to peer pressure each other.

        Fucking hate those Stanleys. How many water bottles do people need? I have one. I have had one for like 8 years. It’s bloody well fine.

        And when I was a kid in the 90s they’d beat you up and steal your Gameboy, and today I watch my kids and their friends and their school share and care about others and won’t put up with bullying.

        Interesting. Almost like it’s different everywhere all the time.
