I was busy yesterday and didn’t get to post so I’m hitting you guys up with a double post. This one deals with something that was debated quite a bit on Halloween while handing out candy. What is the cut-off age for trick or treating? Everyone seems to have different opinions and who’s to say who’s right. Should there even be a cut-off age? I think there has to be but what is that age?
Here’s my range; AGE 3 through YOUR AGE AS A FRESHMAN in HIGHSCHOOL. That seems fair to me. There’s no reason for infants through Age 2 to be trick or treating. If your parents have to hold you to go trick or treating, we all know who the candy is for you greedy ass cheap bastards! We all know that the parents are going to eat that candy. Every time this happened on Sunday, I tried to fish out the crappiest candy I had in the bucket. All Dots, tootsie rolls and gum. Let’s see you’re infant eat that those candies you selfish son of a bitch! I know what you’re doing and it’s not cool. Maybe it’s me, but when you have teeth, can walk and are coherent enough to know what is going on, that’s when you should be allowed to start trick or treating.
On the flipside, maybe it’s me but if you’re out of a training bra, sporting a REAL mustache and have already popped a cherry or had your cherry popped, it’s time to put the trick or treat bag down and retire from the scene. I can’t tell you how many borderline teens I saw trick or treating. I can see the fun in it but there has to be a time where you say, ok, enough is enough and I need to grow up. In fact, that is the first step in growing up, putting the trick or treat bag down and handing out candy out is a christening of adulthood.
Is this a good age range? Let me know what you think?
