We tried both. Yea we don't even bother with it. We were trying because he was literally going crazy and we had such a hard time vacuuming so we thought we would try to get the message across that it was just loud and that's all. Luckily he did good when we shaved his head this past weekend. He hates stuff that makes loud noises.
That is completely horrible what ya'lls instructers did to ya'll. I have never ever heard of anything that absurd before. They could seriously have gotten sued by some angry parents for that mess. So glad that it didn't mess you up. I know of having phobia of things because of traumatic events. I'm emetophobic from the way I was brought up. It's a horrible phobia to have being that coasters are a big passion of mine, and some days my phobia does get the best of me. Especially when I am going to try a new coaster. I have yet to ride Carolina Cobra because I'm terrified that it's gonna make me throw up considering I've heard alot of enthusiast say that boomerang coasters make them queesy. My little sister and mom loved it although my little sister said it made her gray out a bit. It's so funny that the height and speed of coasters don't scare me not one bit I'm more worried if it's gonna make me sick. Like I want to go to Cedar Point but Im terrified to ride Millennium Force or TTD for that very reason. I have never rode anything that goes that high, fast, or as steep of a drop. I haven't even imagined riding I305, but that's also because of the intensity and I also have heart palps.
I would've hated to be that mother to have to live with that guilt for the rest of my life. I hope Ryan (my son) is like me. Unlike my mom though I'm gonna start him on the smaller coasters made for kids his age and not just throw him on a ride like Grizzley first. I was 6 when my mom did that to me. She lied and told me it was a kiddy coaster and I was so excited being my first coaster. We were with a church group so my mom sat behind me and put me and another 6 year old boy from our church in a seat together. He was freaking out before the ride began and I was trying to calm him down and get him excited. Needless to say it's not a kiddey coaster and we both freaked when we started going down that hill and were dunking down in the seats as far as possible. It looked like an empty cart. I have yet to ride that ride again to this day. Even when I got the nerve up at 14 to start riding coasters again I cried when my mom tried to get me on it again. I refuse.
I'm so glad that you have denied people getting on for that reason. It's not fair to the kids for parents to force them to do things that terrify them. I mean being a little scared is one thing but when a parent drags a crying child on something it's completely different. I completely agree with you.
