No kid is complimenting your decorations.

I'm not in AU park but kids complemented our decorations all night. The vast majority did but our house has a lot of funny stuff.

You mean they mad the decor complete?

Op here and it doesn’t matter. Past years I have had super sweet, cute and polite kids like you, PP. Maybe it’s just a streak of bad luck.

That is extremely rude OP!! 😲
I would be so taken aback if that happened to me!

I imagine their parents would be mortified if they knew their child was behaving in that matter.

I know I would be.

One family sent a gaggle of 4-5 kids up (I assume parents were at the end of the driveway but it was dark) all under the age of 7 or so, one was visibly ill and could not stop coughing a phlegmy cough and another one who was probably 2 and did not speak and was grabbing at the candy. They also wouldn’t leave! After giving them each a few pieces of candy I basically had to say “Happy Halloween!” and shut the door in their faces.

Nothing more annoying than the parents screaming "say thank you".

And yet, you still keep doing it!

SMH.

I think its rude and lazy and poor manners to leave a bowl out. Either you are participating in the custom, which is passing out candy in person, or you are not.

I had a ton of kids who just stood there and stared at me, like no "trick or treat" or anything....so i stared at them back! sometimes they then said "hi". It was weird.

I did have one group of 3 boys who were grabby and started stepping into my house to get at my bowl which I was holding. I'm like, please don't come in my house!

In Annandale, Virginia a group of teens rang a doorbell and called the houseowners the n-word twice.


In 2023. So bold, so blatant.

Unclench. We were across the street doing a firepit. Kids were perfectly happy to take candy from our bowl. No one dumped the whole bowl into their bags or anything like that. In 22207 all I saw was lots of adorable, polite little kids and lots of funny, polite teens.

Also, why would anyone begrudge a kid coming into the neighborhood for TOT? Ugh!

This is an odd perspective. We leave candy out because we’re taking our own children trick or treating. We have 3, one with special needs, and it takes 2 adults to keep them safe. But even if it didn’t, we both want to go with them!
