The happiest place on Earth? Hilarious photos show kids having epic meltdowns at Disney World

KIDS today, they don't know they're born. You spend all your hard-earned cash taking them to Disneyland and all you get is a tantrum for your troubles.

While most kids would jump with excitement at the thought of seeing Mickey and co, these little cherubs weren't so impressed. But their sour expressions make for some pretty amusing holiday snaps.

Here we've rounded up some of the best:

Mickey's ears weren't quite what this little one expected

'That's it, I'm done. The shoe is off.'

The backward-cap look isn't for everyone...

'Personal space, Mickey. PERSONAL SPACE!'

Wouldn't like to be on the receiving end of that tiny tot's side eye

A life-size Buzz Lightyear - with those eyebrows - would do that to anyone

It could be the polka dots or the distinct lack of people at Disneyland causing these tears

An oversized Minnie causes an oversized tantrum

Looks like this little one didn't want to share Dumbo

This pouty princess won't even look at the camera

Poor Pluto, all he did was tip his cap for Princess Belle

Nothing says, 'I am so over it' like a tired eye rub

Meltdown imminent. The pain is real...

Last year we reported on a former Disney land worker who spilled the beans on what it's really like to work at the magical kingdom
