[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I've been around the block (pun intended, sorry) and I can guarantee you that ALL the younger elementary set and MOST of the older elementary set are accompanied by adults. Middle schoolers are on the own. And yes, even a few high schoolers go trick and treating. I don't know who these posters are - do they only trick and treat inside apartment buildings, or closed enclaves? - but they do not represent the reality on suburban/urban streets. [/quote] My child is in 4th grade and hasn't had a parent with them for 2 years, same with their friends. I guess we feel our neighborhood is safe. Don't any of your kids play outside, ride bikes or scooter without a parent around? If not, that is a sad childhood. And if so, what is the difference? [/quote] Don't play dumb. Children generally play outside DURING THE DAY. Halloween is AT NIGHT. Nobody could care less about kidnappers, but car accidents are a very real danger. [/quote]
