Btw, no lagoons in the Everglades.

There should be a sign for ignorant parents - hanging around their necks.

You know, if there's one positive thing about this tragedy, it's that people like the mouthbreathing idiot above can finally, FINALLY be able to feel superior about something. They knew about the dangers of gators in Florida! And these other people didn't know about the dangers of gators in Florida! And, thankfully, now those "ignorant parents" are paying for that in the most unimaginably horrific way possible! Yay, time to pat yourself on the back for having known about gators! You win!
No kidding. This is so random and so sad. People love to judge and feel superior when we should all be saying our prayers for this poor family - there lives have been destroyed. Not to mention - the child could have been a couple feet from the shore line and still be dragged in by the croc. They do come out of the water, you know.
I disagree. It's not random at all. A child was in the swampy water at mealtime for gators. It's not meant to be a beach. They could have gone to the pool, the beach, the hot tub. Unfortunately, they were at the wrong place at the worst time and didn't know any better.
Have you seen the photos? It was totally a beach. There was literally a "beachside movie screening" that had just finished up.
EXACTLY! almost the entire shoreline looks like a lovely little beach--at least the sand part.
It's supposed to LOOK like one because it's Floridian resort. I suppose the Caribbean ship there is real too?
You're treading dangerous waters, lady. Next you're going to say Cinderella's castle isnt real and elephants can't fly at the Magic Kingdom

If gators are such a threat, signs other than "no swimming" should have been posted warning people about the danger of alligators, even on the beach. Get back to us when you loose a child for not wearing a seat belt or diving in the shallow end, so we can blame you for your shitty parenting.
Yes, shitty tragic sad things can happen to anyone. Criticizing these parents doesn't mitigate that fact. It would be nice if people could deal with that painful realization in more constructive ways than rubbing salt in this family's horrible wounds.

You're right, if Disney had posted alligator warnings and not held night-time, beachside family attractions like their movie night, it was likely avoidable.
Agree, and I'm sure Disney knows they will be paying dearly for the loss of this child's life. I can't even imagine this goes to court, Disney will absolutely settle, and will absolutely have gator warnings signs that are abundant and visible after this.

One tumble and it's drown city, even without man-eating marine life. I don't think I left my kids alone in the bathtub at age 2. But I still think that there should be alligator warnings. I wouldn't let my kid walk within 50 feet of the water if I saw that sign.
And that's what it comes down to, right? Most of us would see that and never, ever let our kids anywhere near that shore. But that warning wasn't posted.
Water in FL= possible sharks or alligators
Is signage really needed to remind people to stay out of murky water in the dark.
MD should post snow signage. Warning: Possible ice build up during winter storms
It is so awesome that you can be so glib about the tragic death of a toddler! Good for you!
In the real world, not every single person in America has heard about the dangers of alligators in Florida. Not every single person knows every single thing that it is possible to know in order to keep them from harm. If Disney had shelled out like $500 to have alligator warnings posted on their existing signs on that beach, we likely would not be discussing this.

A little harsh? This is not a competition. When you leave your home and go somewhere new it is your responsibility to know about and become familiar with your surroundings. For example, you leave for Italy, it might be important to know transportation could go on stoke and leave you stranded. Perhaps good to know that some places in Hawaii have active volcano eruptions, that the Atlantic has a jet stream, ect...
No, I don't think it's harsh to call out the people calling the parents ignorant idiots.
People make mistakes, but this one was avoidable. It is very sad.

Does beachside movie night invite people into the lake to wade in the water too? There are postings to stay out of the water. No swimming= stay out of the water.
