I don't see what the problem is with this. The mothers who do this
are clearly handicapped-- morally handicapped.

Indeed. If it turns out that the handicapped "guides" get $20/hour out
of the $130/hr charged the yuppie moms, that would be the cherry on
the shit sundae.

Is it immoral to take a handicapped child to Disney?

...at no cost?

[Futbol Phan]

No, but that wasn't what the article was about. It was about not having a handicapped child and gaming the system to take advantage of an accommodation offered to people with disabilities. That is immoral.

[the_andr...@yahoo.com]

But they were helping those handicapped children

How many kids never have the chance to go to Disney? These fine
parents were paying the way for a kid they didn't even know.

Such good, good people.

I think there's been some misreading of the story, including by me.

The handicapped people being rented out aren't kids... they are the
guides.

That's pretty amazingly scumbaggy.

anyone can rent a scooter at Disney. You don't need to hire a disable tour guide. A couple of years ago a friend of mine had a walking boot on after he had surgery on his toe. He got a scooter and everyone was able to got to the handicapped entrance. Most rides you could not bring a scooter into the main entrance. And he is nowhere near a 1%er
