heartbroken.. need pixies

My son told me tonight that he doesn't want to go back to wdw next summer. I think TOT traumatized him. I feel horrible. I don't know what to do or say that will help him get past this. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Hopefully if you give him some time, all the good memories will surface and his TOT memory will not be so bad. Keep reminding him of all the things he enjoyed and be sure to reassure him that he does not have to ride TOT again.

Oh the poor guy! Like Lisa said, I would remind him he never has to go on that ride again, or any fast/scary one if he doesn't want to. Good luck!

What if he got to plan the trip so he knew what you would be doing and he would be assured that he wouldn't do anything he didn't want to do. Buy him his own guidebook and sit with him at the computer to look fun stuff up.

Oh, I hope he changes his mind...keep reminding him of all the fun he did have and that he never has to ride anything he doesn't want to. I like the suggestion of him planning. good luck!

I have tried to remind him of the fun stuff he did. I brought up the pirates league which he was interested in. I am trying to let the conversation die down and not talk about it, but he won't let it go. He has adhd and anxiety and I am not sure if this has something to do with the anxiety or an imbalance in his anxiety medicine. I tried to remind him of all the magic of wdw and the little things there. I hate to pay for him to go and he not have a good time.
