Thank God!Disney will not pay the family anything and admits no wrong doing. They refuse to apologize since they believe they have nothing to apologize for.
I am sorry, but I have to ask. NHtikibeckie you said you live in the same town. Please tell me they are feeling some sort of backlash from this wether it be around town, or in the schools? I am sure this probably is a bad form question, but with what they are trying to pull I just had to ask if they are getting any type of bascklash to let them know how wrong this is? The poor guy is having to fight mean-ugly acting father and son over this, and it's clear the son was doing something, and the dad based on audio during the video was aware calling his kid and other remarks. The comments made on the youtube site with the video are well lets just say ummm there are some words I wouldnt even use made towards this family. Again sorry if this question was in bad form.
Tigger was choked by the kid pulling his costume at the neck. Disney suspended the character with pay and since has returned to work. Disney will not pay the family anything and admits no wrong doing. They refuse to apologize since they believe they have nothing to apologize for. Someone ought to chock that kid and see how he might react.
Let's also talk about the character (Tigger) as a person. He is know for helping. We know a family who has a severly handicapped child. The mother has severe arthritis. This guy will wait a 1/2 hour at the grocery store to assist the family with getting the child into the car unload, the groceries and help load the wheel chair just because he cares.
If they are sucessful in getting the case to court I hope they call this family to testify. They will crucify their case.
YEAH TIGGER!!!!
I'm sorry, but you know all this because...?
I can't believe the magnitude this story has taken on. It is insane that these parents would continue this ridiculous accusation on Tigger...I have yet to see the mother speaking about it. (Assuming she was present). Also in his interview the father clearly states he originally thought his son did something wrong until reviewing the tape he saw that "Tigger attacked" haha.
Sad that this tigger employee will probably lose his job
I just found this site while searching via "google" for any updates on the Tigger farce.

Someone on this board apparently spoke to Jerry Monaco, but I can't find the thread now.
It said he's getting hate mail and his children are being teased. WAKE UP MONACO!!!!

Mail expressing your opinion is good, hate mail is not. I think Mr Monaco cut off his own nose by appearing on the news the way he did. He appeared to be a short tempered unreasonable man. Which I believe is why the world has reacted they way they have.
I still support Tigger but I think all the people who have been posting things like this http://nh.craigslist.org/rnr/261344598.html are even scarier.
He is getting a lot of "hate" how can we help him seen his bad if we are reacting even worse?
I don't know this man, I'm not trying to stick up for him, but hate mail is not OK
Becky
I can't even imagine what he's been getting and I absolutely do not condone it.
Well put!I guess what I'm trying to say is that his little boys are a product of their environment and Mr. Monaco has no one to blame but himself for their future treatment.
