There has been an instance where a sleeping "princess" was in the room and the parent was told to stay outside while the CM went into the room to perform the room check. A complaint was made to the resort management about this behavior by the CM.
I don't believe this - at all. Any reasonably intelligent person knows they should never believe what they read on the internet.
I see two issues going on that are fanning the flames about this issue. One, people are flat out making stuff up to stir the pot. Two, there are a staggering number of people today with entitled attitudes that get themselves all worked up over how they will be "wronged" because they might somehow be inconvenienced. Most of the posts about how terrible the policy is come from people who have NOT even stayed at WDW under the new policy - complaints about what they believe MIGHT happen, coming up with all kinds of crazy scenarios where people suddenly need to protect themselves and their children from the evil WDW CMs who have sinister intentions.
Then you have posts from people who have been to WDW since the policy was implemented (some with multiple trips) who report absolutely no issues at all - never having anyone even knock while they were in the room. Yes, I'm sure there have been some people who may have been woken from a nap when someone knocked. Before the policy was implemented WE have been woken up from a nap when we had the DND sign on the door. We simply told the CM we were napping. It didn't ruin our trip in any way. We have had similar things happen at other hotels, including some extremely high end hotels.
I'm an RN and the number of people on this site who have reported that they have an illness where simply being awoken from a nap will lead to their sure and sudden DEATH is nuts.
