    Trick or Treat?

    So a radio on my Facebook pointed out how it seems like there's barely any children out trick or treating.

    Instead of bracing the weather and dressing warm, parents are taking their kids to the mall to trick or treat.

    It's now 7:03 here and we've had 5 kids...

    How many have y'all had ? :p

    We left out candy on the front porch and walked our kids around. We only saw 2 other groups of kids (about 3 kids each group). Seems really slow this year

    We don't get trick or treaters around our house. Driveways are to long and too far apart, plus no street lights.

    I know what you mean, my mom lives out in cow town and she has only got 2 trick or treaters in the past few years. (The neighbor's grandson, and the other neighbor's granddaughter lol)

    We just moved to the neighborhood where I grew up back in April, not a lot of kids around any more, mostly older folks...At our hold house, suburb style, we had over 150 kids each year. It was crazy.

    Well I was really disappointed. This was our 1st year living in a "neighborhood" and we got maybe a dozen groups of kids. Most weren't even dressed up and were just using plastic grocery bags! Ugh! What happened to dressing up!? What about those traditional pumpkin pails!? I didn't even go through a whole bowl of candy and I was giving each kid 2 pieces! I was so excited too...

    Someone posted on Facebook from home saying they had about 160 kids. That is seriously surprising, since there is usually a piddly amount.

    When I was a kid was the time when people would get hundreds of kids at their door. But it seems like everyone from my neighborhood is my age now and there's a way less amoutn of younger kids.

    Reach for the stars, and if you don't grab them at least you'll fall on top of the world.
