[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to vote with the "it's rude" crowd. A big portion of the fun is for the kids to say 'trick or treat' and show off their costumes. Wandering around and picking up candy from an unattended bowl doesn't seem fun or neighborly. It just isn't the same experience for the kids. Since you have another adult who can stay home to pass out candy, I think it is selfish of you to go out together and take that experience away from other kids. I am a single parent so I will leave a bowl out, but pretty much everyone in my neighborhood knows I'm single so the bowl won't seem rude (I hope). Plus, I would feel like a jerk bringing my DS around to other houses if I didn't provide something for the other kids. [/quote] OP - this is a fair and rational (and not hostile) argument. I never thought About this, maybe because we are still pretty new to having trick-or-treaters. No excuse i know. Thanks you for not being hostile. We will try to take turns. [/quote]
