How can you cut off an age for KIDS?!

More importantly how do you even enforce it

[@jesseincognito.]

Last night when my kids went trick or treating we went to another neighborhood on the other side of town where a relatives friend was hosting some kids from Cipan and the oldest who turned 21 said it was an amazing experience to go trick or treating for the first time since he’d only see it in movies n tv shows

[@SpookyVibes1013]

There should not be an age limit or a law preventing teens/ adults to enjoy Halloween and trick or treat! I am 27 and I still dress up every year and my whole family knows this is my favorite holiday and they support me! Never once did they say I’m too “old” so have fun everyone and be safe!!

[@StormC9101]

No, I trick or treated all the way up to age 18. Let kids be kids because once they’re adults there’s no going back

[@bikingbuggy4199]

I’m with Al. If you want to dress up, go out and work for it and have innocent fun, then I have no problem with it. Heck, I’d still do it if people weren’t so weird about an adult trick-or-treating. Candy is so easy to come by now but it’s about the fun and celebration, and the smell of all that candy mixed together in your bag.

[@GamerofOld]

That is the thing though. Why is it weird? I mean really it is harmless. Plus I don't know about you but all of us probably have kids in our family who would love the extra candy. You could trick or treat as an adult, gather candy, and then share it with a kid or relative who couldn't celebrate the holiday. I think we are looking at it the wrong way here. It is about having fun. Period.

[@fearfulclan2007]

One word of advice. NEVER leave your candy bowl on your door step. We did that one year so we could go trick-or-treating and when we came back, the entire candy bowl wasn't on our door step anymore, so someone stole it and it was my mom's favorite candy bowl that she had ever since I was little

[@Savagemister]

I'm 53 and I went this year (there may be a video about it on my channel), with my daughter who thinks she is too old to go, at 20, so I went along to show her she is not too old. And like the one lady in this video, I used to be the guy who hated to see older teens at my door. I still gave, but I grumbled. I was wrong.

[@GiaBlinks]

The older kids want something to do on Halloween too. Let them participate if they want to. It sucks that people reach an age where society thinks that we're all up to no good. I went to Disney's Halloween party last year and one of the best parts was being able to trick or treat again.

[@jennxox1111]

So long as you dress up (even if it's just makeup or face paint) you can get candy. I actually like the teenagers and adults who come to my door trick or treating they tend to have the more interesting/humorous costumes. It's not fun for me if I don't get trick or treaters. I don't see how people can have a problem with others having innocent fun.

If a teenager shows up at your door in a costume, just give them candy. There are so many other things that teenagers could do. Let them have this night as long as possible.

[@Supersoccerchic]

Even if they don't, I'll give them candy. People who don't give candy because someone isn't dressed up are so rude. Their houses should be egged. Not everyone has the ability to dress up. Are you telling me that if a kid didn't have or couldn't afford a costume, even making a homemade one because they didn't have materials, you'd turn them away from getting candy? What if they were special-needs?

It’s stupid that people think there’s an age limit. Halloween is for EVERYONE!!!!! Kids aren’t the only thing in the world, and besides the number of kids being born is less now. Just because you’re an adult doesn’t mean you have to be devoid of having fun. If an adult wants to go trick or treating, they should be able to do so without judgement from others.

Halloween is event for everyone to enjoy if they wanted regardless of age. Even adults can still have kids especially if it is nostoglia.

[@cjay9748]

In my country where Halloween is secondary and not as big as the US, trick-or-treating takes place mostly in malls and a handful of local communities. That custom has an upper age limit, particularly 12 years of age, in almost all settings. I can say that having an upper age limit is more of a personal decision yet it is used as a general rule in that country. People in that country think that Halloween is just for kids, which is a common misconception. It's a shame, though. Because of that, I didn't taste that fun activity since I was 7, now I'm 26.

[@UmmYeahOk]

I say that if you’re still in school (not college), as long as you dress up, go ahead. I only look down on the teenagers who are “too cool” to trick or treat, and realize around 7 or 8 that they made a huge mistake, and go out WITHOUT a costume. Like, it’s not hard! Most teenage boys have some sort of sports jersey. I mean, try. I had one middle school trick or treat with us tonight, and he had on regular clothes, but he brought a mask. That counts!

I think this has changed over time. Back in the 80’s when I was a kid, boys would usually stop trick or treating after 6th grade (when starting junior high/middle school) and girls would trail off a little later. It always seemed then that during their senior year, girls would head out with their friends again on Halloween in a kind of last hurrah of childhood. Today, I see a much greater mix of ages through middle and high school. I’ve even had a couple of young adults at my door. If they’re just having innocent fun, I don’t have a problem with it.

[@Leonkiller-hn2he]

I just hope people aren’t rude to the teen who dress up and would like to trick or treat.. kids aren’t kids long enough these days. What’s a piece of candy to a crushed heart? “You’re too old to trick or treat..now go find some trouble like a “normal” teen!” My son is 15 .. and was diagnosed with type 1 diabetes at 8. In the last two years, he lost his grandpa’s who he was really close to,his dad and I split after 17 years and he moved back to California..(his dad struggles with mental health due to a head injury that completely changed him) He’s very shy and quiet, and it was hard for him to make friends when he was singled out in school as “different”.. He wasn’t able to sleep over at friends because understandably parents don’t want to deal with/afraid of a child with diabetes and needles.(also the diabetes caused him to wet the bed very late) Not to mention starting a new school along w/ the pandemic isolation definitely changed him. He’s working with counseling and guidance counselors because in the past month, he came to me crying he hasn’t had a friend for the last two years. He feels awkward around people and doesn’t know how to open up to kids.. even tho he wants to. 😢💔 it kills me when he says he’s so sad that he sometimes doesn’t want to be here anymore. He’s always loved Halloween. He’s doing better and actually lit up at the thought of trick-or-treating. He’s taking his 12-year-old sister along with his aunt.. he did dress up, I just pray he doesn’t caught 💩 tonight.
