I wonder if one of them is the Dream Suite?
I think we ALL have that need!
I can picture that scenario with kids with Autism, having met some of my son's friends....persons with Autism do have meltdowns caused by change in routine, not really sure why the DAS does not work for that particular individual unless they can only do walk-ons without any diversion in between? Once again, is it worth it to spend the large amount of money to bring someone who won't enjoy being there as Disney DAS exists?

Disneyland makes DAS card valid for 60 days for annual passholders
The Disneyland Resort made a change very recently to the Disability Access Service program for annual passholders, extending the number of valid dates for the DAS card from 14 days to 60, requiring fewer trips to City Hall. The pass is still only valid for 14 days for day guests.
The change came days after parents of 16 children with developmental disorders and cognitive impairments filed suit against the Walt Disney Company regarding the DAS program. A guest relations cast member told MousePlanet that this change had been in the works for a few weeks and was independent of the lawsuit, but admitted that some may see the timing as related.
Don't be fooled by appearances. In Hawaii, some of the most powerful people look like bums and stuntmen.

I think this is a nice compromise and doesn't monetarily reward the sue-ers.

Can we also remember what "sue-ers" are full of?
