点评:Dear Manager,
I am writing to formally raise a complaint about an incident that occurred on Wednesday, 1st April, at your Clarehall location.
I attended with my sisters, brother, and friends to celebrate a birthday. All of the children in our group are between the ages of 6 and 8. While the two boys in our group were allowed to play without any issue, their sister was approached by a staff member named Jeremiah and told to leave the play area. The reason given was that she was “too tall,” despite the fact that she is only slightly over 4 feet tall.
This situation was extremely upsetting. The child in question became very distressed, crying on the floor while watching her brothers continue to play without her. She had been looking forward to this outing all week, and the experience left her feeling hurt and excluded.
What made the situation even more concerning was the apparent inconsistency in how the rules were enforced. During our visit, we observed at least two other individuals in the play area who appeared significantly taller—one child who seemed over 5’3” and even an adult present on the higher level of the play structure. Despite this, no action was taken in those cases.
Given these observations, it is difficult not to feel that my sister was unfairly singled out. I am particularly concerned that this may have been influenced by her appearance, as she is slightly bigger in build. Regardless, she was within the stated age limits and did not appear out of place compared to others using the facility.
I would appreciate clarification on your height and supervision policies, as well as an explanation as to why they were not applied consistently in this instance. Most importantly, I would like reassurance that no child will be made to feel excluded or singled out in this manner in the future.
If you're bringing your kids here make sure they're not chubby or they'd be told to not play !

我写这封信是为了正式投诉4月1日星期三发生在您克莱尔霍尔分店的一起事件。
我和我的兄弟姐妹以及朋友们一起来这里庆祝生日。我们一行人中的孩子年龄都在6到8岁之间。我们这群孩子中的两个男孩可以自由玩耍,没有任何问题,但他们的妹妹却被一位名叫杰里迈亚的工作人员拦住,要求她离开游乐区。工作人员给出的理由是她“太高了”,尽管她身高只有略高于1.2米。
这种情况令人非常难过。被拦住的孩子非常沮丧,她坐在地上哭泣,眼睁睁地看着哥哥们继续玩耍,却被排除在外。她期待这次外出整整一周,而这次经历让她感到受伤和被排斥。
更令人担忧的是,工作人员在执行规则时似乎存在前后矛盾的情况。在我们参观期间,我们注意到游乐区至少有两名儿童明显比我们高——一名儿童身高超过1.6米,甚至还有一名成年人在游乐设施的较高层。尽管如此,工作人员并未采取任何行动。
鉴于这些情况,我很难不觉得我妹妹受到了不公平的对待。我尤其担心这可能与她的体型有关,因为她的身材略微丰满一些。尽管如此,她的年龄在规定范围内,与其他使用游乐设施的儿童相比,她看起来也并无不妥。
我希望您能澄清贵园的身高和监管政策,并解释为何在此次事件中未能始终如一地执行这些政策。最重要的是,我希望您能保证以后不会再有孩子因此感到被排斥或区别对待。
如果您要带孩子来这里,请确保他们身材匀称,否则他们会被禁止入内!
