YES! Now that you metion it Im getting kids cutting me off and snowplowing up the kicker onto a rail and off to the side....just when I think it's over a neon clad 40year old (their parent) does the same thing. As a matter of fact last time at Mt Snow a woman and her two kids cut me off as I dropped for a kicker. DROP! doesn't mean anything to these people.

We have a Blue and Black park, we still get the odd kid. Parents gott teach the youngin's to respect it. They don't realize how big they are until they get to the lip then they're screwed.

snowboarders sitting there and doing nothing are annoying because they sit act tought and do absolutly nothing to back it up. but getting cut off would be really annoying.

I almost landed on a 5 yeard old this year coming in switch, couldn't see him cause he was on my blind side and his pops tried to give me shit about it. Pisses me off so much. They need to make it so you can pass a flipping test before you can ride park.

I was filming my son in the park a couple of weeks ago and actually got a video of a crash into into a kid (maybe 5-6 y/o)- the parent stopped with right at the end of a rail, but everyone was expecting them to keep going. My son didn't see them until he was up on the rail and had to bail - was a good crash scene, but that's because no one got hurt. The 5-6 y/o ending up crying and the the father blamed everyone else.
Unfortunately not everyone knows/respects that parks are for action. Taking small kids into a park area is dangerous at worst, inconsiderate at best. Gotta say though that it's hard to get them to understand when the park users are just sitting on the jumps though - gives the impression that it's a slow-paced area. (Skiers are worst where I ski, but sounds like that might be unusual in the U.S.)

the park at my local hill is set on a pretty mellow pitch, but its well fenced off & the entrance is about 100ft of steep ice. keeps most of the punters away.
All times are Eastern (-5)
