[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What if you don’t know your kid’s ability to wait in line? DS has HFA and is fine 90% of the time in public, but every 10th time has a huge meltdown. I’d like to have the option to wait in a quiter place, but not sure we *need* it. [/quote] OP who just did this. I had really mixed feelings about using this because I too wasn't sure -- DH is four and hasn't really been to a big amusement park -- and expressed to a couple of friends before we went I felt a little like we were cheating the system. After about 20 mins in the park, I realized how wrong I was to feel that way. It is a very overwhelming experience for a kid with any kind of sensory or attention issue. I would try to get it - there is nothing to lose and not having it and needing it could make your trip harder for your whole family. DS has an NT older sister who, frankly, ends up having her needs take a back seat to her brother's more than I would like out of necessity, so I also saw this as a way of ensuring that my other kid, who is a real trooper, also got to enjoy this experience.
