The next time we actively give out candy might be the year where we have grand kids. Other than that, MEH!!
Wow. Just wow. What a fantastic example that parent is leading with. Happy I live in an older neighboorhood where all the kids have grown up for the most part. Perhaps I'd get like 5-10 kids come by the last few years I would be home for all of this, so I just leave the lights off in the house and dont bother anymore, nobody really comes by anymore.
