    While Wendy, as a mother, is respected as an authority, she is shut away from the adventure, separated from the boy’s adventures in Barrie’s book.

Barrie’s emphasis on Wendy being the mother figure who is…

    enjoyed my time riding the Dumbo planes or the Teacups because the very simple mild rides satisfied me the most. Hearing the laughter of kids finally meeting their Disney heroes always brought joy to the parents.
