Should there be an age limit for Halloween trick-or-treaters?

My typical thought was 12 years old / 6th-Grade. But one year, 3 high-schoolers came to my door, with one guy dressed/made up as an old hag, and I just broke out laughing, and handed out the treats...

[@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.

[@IMAPOTATOZ]

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!!

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.

[@kelli_1652]

The entire point of Beggars Night / Trick or Treat was to give ADOLESCENTS something to do other than make mischief. If you want something for elementary kids age or younger, that's what the Trunk or Treat and other activities are for. Door to Door should be middle schoolers/high schoolers.

[@TropicalHonduranDominican]

I used to say that when I was 12 because I thought I know better. Actually I’m just not a Halloween fan. Anyone at any age can treat or treat. But making it a real law or policy is not the solution

[@MMDMizuki]

Last time I trick or treated, I was 18 and remembered some of my classmates doing the same in my old neighborhood and we all had no problem.

[@keithlewis4250]

Never.

[@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.

[@mysterfan7649]

Halloween is event for everyone to enjoy if they wanted regardless of age. Even adults can still have kids especially if it is nostoglia. I personally stopped Trick or treating at age of 12 because i wanted to go to other neighborhoods that my brother did but I had to keep an eye of 9 years old friend so I couldn't really do that. I can't do trick or treat at my neighborhood because it is too small of selections. .

I don't think there should be an age limit. I think there should be a candy limit. Halloween should be for everyone. If you're taking your child out or grand child out yout should be allowed to get some candy and dress up too

Halloween is fun for everyone. If a teenager wants to walk around a neighborhood with a pillowcase instead of getting smashed at a party or throwing eggs at a house, I am all for it. And really, what does it hurt? It's just some candy in a bowl.

[@Earth1218]

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.

[@bespectacledheroine7292]

I stopped when I was 17, and I still miss it dearly. Would go if it was socially acceptable. It's not like I don't love handing out candy either, but I'd do both in an ideal world.

[@hihowareyou6195]

[@brandonlangley1009]

I think the age limit should be eleven or twelve years old. People who are older can hand out candy, buy their own candy, go to halloween parties or go to haunted houses. I find it a little ridiculous that teenagers and adults still trick or treat.

[@Leonkiller-hn2he]

As a child some of us never got a chance to be what we wanted to be and now that there is more creative costumes now we can be what ever we want and some people love Halloween more than others I don’t think there should be a limit if your dressed your welcomed

[@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!

[@AlexSwaine-x6l]

I plan to go trick or treating when I move out

[@laceypriest8379]

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.

[@dirk8449]

Im 42...i miss trick or treating. Think i stopped around 15/16 years old. No reason really. We would just start having costume parties instead i guess. Some people would would talk crap saying we were too old and some would say hey cool costume and give us candy. 🤷‍♂️ We would wait a little later like 730 830 to go walking, to make sure the little kids got hooked up first.

I don’t think so, but if you want to stop when you feel uncomfortable about it you can do so too.
