[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I
love
Halloween

but I'm always stunned when parents take candy for their INFANT whom they bring around for Halloween -- when our kids were very little we just took them to the door and said HI but "No, thank you" to candy. Because come on the kid isn't going to (SHOULD NOT BE!) eating it and how tacky is it for parents to get free candy for themselves?

I've heard on the boards here that some parents take candy anyway even when they're with kids old enough to get it. What's that about?

And what's with the teenager who show up in regular clothes??

Sorry, I sound like Seinfeld and Louis Black rolled into one. I really love Halloween but I shake my head at this stuff. Please comment on these if you wish or leave your own Halloween "WTF"s!

This is a weird gripe. I assume the parents eat it themselves or it goes into their own candy giveaway bowl. My kid loved collecting candy when she was too little to eat it— I assume because it was shiny and colorful and she got to be like the bigger kids. She ended up playing with it and then we ate it or gave it away. Who cares what the family ends up doing with it? [/quote]
