[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was in disbelief how many kids came to my door tonight and had the audacity to ask “how many can I take?” when I’m holding a basket of FULL size candy bars!!! One kid in particular took one of each full size (4 total full size candy bars)— while his mother stood there and said nothing. This was AFTER I said just one. This kid is 8. 
 My neighbor told me kids shoved their hands into her basket rather than waiting to be given candy by her. When she told one boy to wait until she gives it to him he said “no I want to pick out the ones I want.” This kid is 10. 
What the freaking F is wrong with these kids and why aren’t they being taught common sense etiquette, manners, how to be polite?
I was honestly so disgusted. [/quote]

There is so much variation in how many treats houses give out it is just fine to ask.  And while one is the obvious answer for big bars, I think you're expecting too much from kids in a trick or treating scenario - it is a fine question to ask in the context of trick or treating, plus they are excited, in crowds, some may be shy, wearing masks that make it hard to see the bowl, etc.  [/quote]
