Luvon,

If you still “let” them apparently they are young enough

None.

Halloween isn't really a thing here, but last year the elderly home organized a Trick or Treating event where everyone was invited, but it was mainly setup to give the elderly a fun activity.

I don't think I've ever seen people enjoy dressing up for Halloween as much as they did.

We have like 4 children in our neighbourhood. If an adult showed up at my door in costume, I’d be thrilled to get a visitor, give them candy and offer them booze (it’s also common in my area for homes to offer drinks to parents who are chaperoning their kids).

On a similar note, when my son was about 7, my girlfriend at the time (who was 28) came with us in costume and and went up to houses with him with a candy bag and collected treats. The first couple houses, I actually felt like “this is a little embarrassing” but people just gave her candy and alcohol and I was like “You know what, this is fun!” I realized I was being a stiff adult and should just get over myself (a beer and a couple cup of hot cider with whiskey didn’t hurt my attitude either).

If it makes her happy, why do you care? I assume that most people do “childish” things despite their age because it makes them happy.

JSens1998,

She can do her, and I am happy for her. I’m just curious what other people’s opinions are is all?

neptune,

All the thirty five year olds giving her candy probably think it’s funny

JSens1998,

I’ve watched from their driveway and they usually have a look of debate on their faces as to if they want to give her candy or not. They usually just give her a piece though.

neptune,

Most older people don’t want to be left with a bunch of candy at the end of the night. If they didn’t want to give it to her, they wouldn’t.

Honestly? I wouldn’t care about age. Just tell her not to destroy other people’s property by doing the “trick”.

JSens1998,

Fair enough really. She is right in that she isn’t out getting drunk or anything like that.

theKalash,

It’s weird at any age.
