Home schooled kids don't take part in the festival of the devil.

I have no idea. But I know when I was a kid in BR(80s) it was always dark when we went trick or treating. Maybe it ended at 9?

Amen, bro. I kicked my 3 and 2 year old out of the house when the Astros game started and told them not to come back until their candy bags were full.
Can't wait to eat that shite whenever they get home. What time is it anyway?

Probably every teacher who is not also a coach is able to get home before 5:30.

Brought my 3-yr old out at 6:15 but we didn't stop til 7:30. Hit a bunch of houses in our neighborhood and the one next door. He had a blast and, to me, that's all that counts. He got the best of both. As he gets older we'll leave a little later.
The world has changed so much with Halloween. A lot of creeps and idiots out there now. My neighborhood does it alright, but there are a few that ride around in golf carts and such.

I feel sorry for the parents who have to take the kids trick or treating before sunset.
I don’t see how they get home in time to make it happen for their children.
Kudos to mom, dad or both for putting in the effort to make it work for their kids

when they get 4 or 5, let them go with some older siblings or friends who are like 8 or 9 while you stay at home and have a few beers.

There are set hours in most towns for trick or treating. As long as you’re within that timeframe, I don’t care if it’s light or dark. It’s rude to start ringing doorbells earlier than the set time, IMO. But also dumb to wait much past 6:45-7. People start running out of candy after the first hour.

Well my child is 3.5 and after school for the day he was ready to put on his costume and go trick or treat. We ate dinner and then took him about 6:30 when it was still daylight. This isn't the 70's or 80's like it used to be. He did some trick or treating after it was dark for a little while and came home and was out before 9:00.

It was dusk when we started but I have two year old and an infant. However, it was dark by the time we finished.

Did setting the clocks back occur earlier in the year back then such that it was dark by 6pm and allowed for two hours of trick or treating?
Yes, daylight savings time was extended about 10 years ago to begin two weeks earlier and end a week later on the first weekend in November instead of the last weekend in October. That’s the real reason most of the people in the thread remember it the way they do.

Must suck to have a crappy job and/or not be able to leave a little early to do something fun with your kids.

We had two door bell rings all night.
One at 6:05, the other at 8:45.
Seems normal to me.

My kids are so oppressed. We went over to the neighbors house at 5:30 and were trick or treating by 6:30 and done by 7:30. They are some candy and were passed out in bed by 8:15.
My three kids are 3, almost 2, and 3 weeks old. They barely understood the concept of Halloween so I hope they will forgive me one day for taking them out so early.

Wouldnt most kids be dying to start as soon as they can? I dont think most kids care about waiting for it to be dark to start.

It is pretty easy for one day to leave work an hour early.
