Frightening video out of Hersheypark shows a young boy calmly walking on the monorail track. (Spoiler: he’s safe). The kid seems calm, but the grown-ass adults are a chaotic mess. Don’t be like them. “STOP! KEEP GOING! NO! NO! KEEP GOING!!”

If he's autistic, it would not be unusual for him to exhibit behavior much like that of a two-year-old.

The monorail track is wider than the kid. Just needed powering down. Frightening. No. Bad parenting? Perhaps. But Cirque de Soleil might wanna talk to him in 15-20 years.

That makes literally no sense. I remember being 9 and I was the most adventurous and curious kid in pretty much any group. At 9, I was also capable of recognizing if something is dangerous. ESPECIALLY if it’s something like that. If your kids are doing things like this…it’s not “curiosity”

people asking how he got up there, have they never ridden a monorail before? there's a station platform, and you can just walk from the platform onto the track. maybe there's a railing he had to duck under or climb over. not hard to figure out how he got up there. he didn't fly up there 🤪

Agreed. The way he responded in putting up his hands to his head/ears is very typical. They can so easily slip away in a heartbeat. I'm sure his parents were frantic. They are that fast, even at home. Personal experience and complete understanding here. So thankful for the happy ending.

Enough parents have experience with autistic children of varying degrees to recognize familiar signs & traits (hands up to head, unusual gait, etc) & to have an understanding of the tenuous situation. It would appear you don't have that experience or you wouldn't be so critical of their empathy.
