To elaborate on my last post..
There was an article on my school’s newspaper (i’m in highschool), saying we are too old to trick or treat. And the writer’s idea for an alternative? Going to a Halloween party! Which isn’t always a good alternative for everyone.
Halloween parties, or parties thrown by teenagers in general, can often have things there that make people uncomfortable. Teens could be drinking, doing drugs, smoking/vaping, or other activities. In my opinion, it’s better people go trick or treat than do these activities.
Look. my opinion is and has always been: One is never too old to dress up for Halloween and Trick or Treat.
It’s odd how people see this holiday as a thing for children. And trick or treating in particular.
We live in a society that forces kids and teens to grow up too fast.
Let us enjoy being kids for a little longer. Stop making trick or treating illegal for teens.
Stop forcing people to grow up too fast.
And, i’ll always give candy to those that come to my door on Halloween and say, “Trick or treat!”
Sincerely,
Caiden
