Halloween - Ever had these things happen?

I didnt hand out candy, but I took my son door to door, and not once did I hear of any bad kids, our biggest issue was the lack of kids this year. There were many people who never once got a trick or treater, where last year,, they had numerous ones. I didnt see too many teens either. my sons friend Lucas was cuter han heck tho(age 6) as he kept saying "happy Halloween" as he reached the door, and "Have a merry Christmas" as he was leaving, we got plenty of laughs from that!

I'm not ashamed to say I went out trick-or-treating this year with my little cousin and her friend. Everyone except 1 or two houses were kind enough to give me candy.

It's unfortunate that kids with bad habits have come to your area. It spoils Halloween!

I have never once had a problem with trick or treaters. They are all polite and cute here, I guess.

Yes, we get older kids. My kids and their friends all go trick or treating. They are 14, 16 and 17. I fail to see a problem at all with this. They are teenagers out having good, clean, harmless fun. Being kids. I say that's wonderful. They aren't out drinking or vandalizing. They just want some candy. What's the harm??? I think kids are asked to grow up so quickly, let them be kids.

I agree. As long as they are still school age kids (under 18) I see no problem with it.
