[quote=Anonymous]I LOVE seeing the high schoolers!

I especially love when they show up in a group that's related -- we have one group of high school kids in our neighborhood that do that every year.

One year they were the Justice League (Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Catgirl, Aquaman, etc) another year they did Marvel (Iron Man, Captain America, Black Widow, Loki, Thor, etc) last year they did the cast of Willy Wonka (Gene Wilder edition), I'm dying to see what they do this year now that they're Seniors in high school.

I will give candy to anyone dressed up in a halfway decent costume.
I'm not the Halloween police, It's not my place to judge whether their costume is "good enough" or where they're "too old" to trick or treat.

Anyone that would deny a kid in high school (that's dressed up) candy, just because you feel that they're "too old" to celebrate, has lost the spirit of Halloween, and you should just shutt the lights off and don't give out candy at all -- who are you to judge???

Our kids are growing up, they're getting older much too quickly and they'll be off to college in the blink of an eye -- if neighborhood teens want to trick or treat, HOORAY!

If your own kid is on the fence, encourage them to continue trick or treating with their friends and get creative... they'll never get this time back again in their lives.  
They don't need to force themselves to grow up faster than they need to.

Let's all remember the spirit of Halloween and not judge who can and can't trick or treat.
