Not too long ago, a mother's post went viral about how Disney World isn't a place for adults or people without children. The post made it's rounds on various social media platforms, as some were in support of her and some were not.

Then, the post resurfaced and it got me thinking. Where does it say that Disney World is only for children? Where does it say that I can't go just because I'm not a young child? Where does it list age limits for visiting the park? Where does it say that I can't ride rides, take pictures with my favorite Disney characters, and buy food while standing in line?

Now, I haven't been to Disney World since I was like 2 years old, but that's not because I didn't want to go. I would LOVE to go back to Disney and enjoy the atmosphere.

Just because I'm in my twenties doesn't mean I don't love Disney.

I rewatch the old, animated Disney princess movies sometimes. I watch Disney movies when they air on TV. I watch the remakes and the live action versions of my favorite childhood Disney movies. I even watch some of the new Disney movies being released these days because I love Disney. I literally tell my friends all the time that no one is ever too old for a Disney movie.

My age doesn't determine what I'm allowed to like and where I'm allowed to go. My age doesn't mean I can't love Disney. My age doesn't mean that I can't spend MY OWN MONEY to visit the Disney Parks. My age doesn't mean that I go to Disney with the sole intention of making children cry, as the mom accused adults of in her post.

To say that "childless millennials" should be banned from Disney is ridiculous.

I hate to break it to those that think this mother is right, but you're going to wait in a long line at any amusement park/tourist destination you go to, whether there are adults there or not.

So let us adults be happy and visit the happiest place on Earth.

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
