I also understand the disappointment those boys must have felt and the situation probally should have been handled better. However, I am a vetern of the Character meal and do at least one a day on my trips to the world. Still, I cannot stand those people who can't wait like the rest of us and sit at their table. Things are set up so everyone gets time with the characters and when one family decides they are more important than the rest of us it throws the entire meals and character times off. Those boys should have been told to come back with their parents and if they didn't want to pay for a character meal like the rest of the custmers they could have stood in the hour long line in MK and met several of them. I am sorry if this sounds harsh all, but you plan a certain amount of time to do everything and waiting even longer for each character because of difficult families and other distractions is a little on the annoying side. How fair is it to the next family waititing to be seated? The boys should have NEVER been running around without supervision anyway. Had their parents been there, perhaps they could have explained the way things worked to them. Again sorry if this sounds harsh but it is how I feel. I pay for the experience and so should everyone else.
The Cast member could have said, "Please come back with your Mommy and Daddy for dinner. or.....It's is somone else's turn right now, why dot you wait until the dinner is over and you can get all of the autographs?" There are thousands of different ways it could have been stated more politiey than it was. The cast member did not handle her apporach well at all.
