[quote=Anonymous]It is built up into a much bigger thing now. I used to go with neighbors - some were a little older, some a little younger. My parents would’ve laughed at me if I asked for a ride to & from a friend’s house that night. When we were little the parents walked around with us with beers in hand, & then when were in middle school we were able to run off ahead & go wherever & come back when we wanted (like at a normal time). And then in high school, it was over & we gave out candy & hid the pieces that we liked so that if no more kids came, we could eat the good stuff. It was so much more lowkey & enjoyable.

Middle school now is a tough time for Halloween. There’s a lot of talk about everyone’s plans & kids can feel really left out - even though half of their friends are in the same situation, since they are just starting to make plans on their own & aren’t great at it yet. Encourage them to ask even last minute if a friend wants to get together, even a friend they don’t know well. So many middle schoolers are in this same boat. [/quote]
