So sorry Pagodacook but I disagree. By the way my last message was posted 5 days ago so I'm very relaxed, thanks!

people without kids often forget kids exist. i know i never considered them until i had them. it was not galeen's fault for not picking well. she just never thought about it. (she will from now on, tho!)

i did not think AC was a place for my little ones and left them home last time. now they are going in may. that said, i am a good mom, and keep my kids in check when in public. if mine acted like that, they'd be OUTTA there! but they know better.

it was their vaca too and they should be allowed to have fun. but the parents needed to respcet that it is the other's vaca's as well.

i believe that up north she would not have had that problem. at JE, i was the ONLY ONE in the pool! and on the beach, for that matter.

People WITH kids often become immune to their ruckus.

sorry, maryann, but NO WE DON'T. i just plain do not allow it. we have fun, but not to ruin others' fun. respect for others is the real issue.

now, who is addressing the grown-ups that make too much ruckus at night????

Good Point!! Who does address the grown-ups? We sometimes make more "rukus" than the kids do. ha!

Rhon- I wasn't referring to you specifically and certainly meant no offense to you by defending Gaelen. It just happened that my response came directly after yours which came directly after everyone elses. This topic obviously touched a nerve with you but I am glad to hear you are now relaxed. Keep reminding yourself of that til the next time you can again enjoy the peace and tranquility that is Ambergris Caye.
