If I remember right, a series of economic reforms took place in China in 1974. They've been so successful that now we're worried about China surpassing the United States in power. In my opinion, they already have surpassed us in many ways, but we're not willing to admit it (though such behavior at a Disney park may cancel out progress.... ugh! )

When i was in Shanghai and Hangzhou, i did see kids pee a lot in the street and even at the temples I visited. they even make crotch less pants specifically for it that you can buy in stores. They look ridiculous but hey, easy access. Also they are notorious for cutting in line. Its the norm. Happened to me twice. But don’t be fooled, there not tough about it at all. If you make the slightest stink about, they'll back off ASAP. Just leave as little space as possible between you and the person in front of you and you’ll be fine. China may be growing in economic power but there still trying to get beyond the Cultural Revolution people wise. And don’t get me started on dysentery. Lets just say im already worried about our Athletes when they compete in 2008 Beijing.

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.

Common sense is a wonderful thing, too bad some don't have it as a sixth sense!
