My best experience was in 1998, I was working at Epcot at the Land. As I came around the corner by the 9 pound lemons (where the Huge Pumphins are now) I just started to talk about the "sterilized sand" and noticed a little boy in the back row standing and peeing off the side of the boat into the "sterilized sand"!!! He was probably 2-3 and his mother was holding him. In 2001 I saw just about the same thing off the side of the Backlot Tour. The worst was one day while walking through the Studios heading to lunch, I saw a parent holding a child over a planter as she pooped! Interestingly enough, he was less than 20 feet from a restroom and was well aware of it. "She couldn't wait!" was his reply. I couldn't eat lunch that day!
Needless to say, it's not just a Chinese thing... It's super rare here though. I've only noticed a few cases in almost eight years, but it does happen.
