Disney adults furious over ‘little known' dress code rule: ‘The magic got gatekept'
Disney on Ice fans have been shocked to discover a 'little-known' rule that is in place for their shows around the globe. TikTok creator and Disney fan, Phoebe Parsons, took to social media to question what the go was with the dress code rule in place for teens and adults, after stumbling on the rule online. 'Disney on Ice, you have some explaining to do,' she captioned the clip. With a backdrop of the fine print, Phoebe points out that Disney On Ice audience members are not permitted to wear a costume if they're over the age of 14 years. It was a rule that she not only didn't know about until now, but also was shocked (and a little offended) to see it. Why can't adults dress up too? Speaking to Kidspot, Phoebe said that the rule felt a little restrictive for Disney fans, who love to dress up as their favourite character at any chance they get. 4 TikTok creator and Disney fan, Phoebe Parsons, took to social media to question what the go was with the dress code rule for Disney on Ice. TikTok/phoebeparsons__ 'Honestly, it just felt like a bit of the magic got gatekept,' she said. 'Do I think adults should be able to dress up with their kids? Within reason, yes. If a mum or a big sister wants to wear a matching Elsa cape, why not? It's harmless fun. The world's heavy enough, let people do things that fill them with joy. Even if it's wearing a tiara at 35,' she added. When Phoebe shared the video on TikTok, she was met with a mixed response. Some were equally shocked to see it. 'The audacity, right? I was offended too,' one person commented. 'THE DISRESPECT! Like I wanted to go for my BIRTHDAY and you bet your *** I was going to get dressed up,' another added. 'Actually cried when I saw this. I want to be Elsa,' another fan shared. Disney on Ice's rule of entry explained The costume rule for older audience members is clearly explained on the Disney on Ice website's FAQ page under 'inappropriate attire.' 'Costumes are not permitted for guests 14 years and older,' the website reads. And that's not all, there were plenty of other restrictions placed on guest clothing too. 'Feld Entertainment and its affiliates reserve the right to deny admission to or remove any person wearing attire that is considered inappropriate or attire that could detract from the experience of other guests,' the explanation continues. Attire that is not appropriate and which may result in refusal of admittance includes, but is not limited to: Costumes and costume masks, which may not be worn by Guests 14 years of age or older Clothing with objectionable material, including obscene language or graphics Excessively torn clothing As stated above, clothing which, by nature, exposes excessive portions of the skin that may be viewed as inappropriate for a family environment Clothing that touches or drags on the ground Obscene or profanity tattoos Parents should be thankful, not offended Along with those shocked followers, many others who stumbled on the video said they already knew about the rule and respected that it was in place for good reason. 4 Phoebe points out that Disney On Ice audience members are not permitted to wear a costume if they're over the age of 14 years. TikTok/phoebeparsons__ In fact, if parents dug a little deeper, they'd appreciate what it's there for. 'It's a safety rule. So children don't walk off with strangers dressed as princesses. You can still have fun, but it is important to keep children safe from people who might want to hurt them,' someone clarified. 'You can dress up, just not wear a costume, it's to stop adults being confused as staff, it really is a safety measure to protect children from possible unsafe people pretending to be staff,' another added. Others highlighted that this rule wasn't just for Disney on Ice, but rather a general 'Disney' rule that is also enforced at their parks. 4 'Feld Entertainment and its affiliates reserve the right to deny admission to or remove any person wearing attire that is considered inappropriate or attire that could detract from the experience of other guests,' the rules continue. 'I honestly think it's the same as the Disney parks, where they have the guidelines in place for a reason because a lot of kids will mistake people for staff or the paid princesses, and so it's just to keep things safe.' It's called 'Disney Bounding' At times like this, fans in the know resort to what has been dubbed as 'Disney Bounding' – a phenomenon where adults can still pay tribute to their favorite characters without having to completely dress up. Fans are free to add a subtle little something from items they already own that resembles something that their favorite character has or represents. Think, a yellow skirt for Belle from Beauty and the Beast, or a polkadot dress as a nod to Minnie Mouse. Disney Bounding allows fans to celebrate without confusing little ones about who they really are. 4 Disney on Ice fans have been shocked to discover a 'little-known' rule that is in place for their shows around the world. Paul Martinka While she completely respects why the rule is in place, TikTok creator Phoebe is still saddened that so many fans are restricted in the way that they can attend a fun outing with their kids. 'I totally understand and support policies around child safety (100% for it),' she told Kidpsot. 'But for a lot of people, dressing up isn't about being creepy or inappropriate, it's about nostalgia, bonding, and leaning into joy.'

'New widower boyfriend has three kids and I'm not sure I can handle it'
I've been dating my partner for about four months and it's complicated, as he's a single dad with three children. Sadly, his wife died a couple of years ago, so his kids have been through a lot. I haven't met them yet and, if I'm honest, although I really like him and think that we could have a future, I know I'd be taking on a lot. He hasn't suggested I meet them yet, but he talks about them all the time because they're obviously a huge part of his life, and it's clear he adores them and is very protective. A few of my friends have said they don't think they'd want to take on someone who has all that baggage and trauma in his past, which isn't helping. I'm 32 and he's 40, so there's also a bit of an age gap. On the other side of things, we click, we share the same sense of humour and things are great in the bedroom. He's a kind, caring person, which is important to me. I'm just nervous about where this is going and if I'm up to taking him and his kids on. Any help would be appreciated. Four months is still early days for the relationship. At the moment, I think it's good to enjoy dating until you do get to a stage where it's obviously more serious and feels like the right time for decisions and meetings. You don't have to jump into anything – in fact, in this situation, I think it would help to take it slowly. Step-parenting is a big thing to take on and there's no denying it's challenging, but it's also doable and very rewarding when it works. But it is important to know yourself and what you want. For example, I know I wouldn't want to date someone with young kids because I'm 60 with adult children and grandchildren, and feel I've moved on from that stage of life. At your age, you should also think about whether you want your own kids and find out whether he'd want another child. You're only 32 so, if he's not keen on having more, that could be a deal breaker for you. Have a conversation about what your expectations are for the future. Blended families are so common these days and, if you're dating older people, it's highly likely they'll have kids and/or ex-wives. But it's good to question it and consider it properly because, if you do take him on, you will be taking on his children, too, and you'll have to share his time and his love with them. Disney On Ice brings its magical wonder to arenas around the country once again this year. With tickets starting at £41 each, fans can see their favourite characters skate through adventure.
