Yeah, I agree, not a good thing for people to do.  But I've accepted it as a by-product of fireworks shows.  Wasn't there a Disneyland commercial at one point that showed a child on a parent's shoulders?  It's something people always do at fireworks shows.
I'd say it's equally as annoying as having to show up 3 hours before a show and stake out a spot because everyone else will.

 Ok, I can't help but have an opinion on this....that totally sucks and I feel sorry for any kid that has something like that imposed on them at Disneyland.  It's a 
vacation!  What sort of evil will it do to keep a child up "super late"?  Sure, they may end up cranky, but so would the adults.  It's no more evil than letting a child eat more sugar than usual, or get a bunch of souveniers, including a balloon that will die at the end of the day or mouse ears that they'll never wear again.
Sorry Pru, that's one of my buttons there.
