from my experience all the ones that fit the description seem as if they drive down from the St. Helena area. Take it for what it's worth.

I don't mind the kids from our neighborhood and even the adjacent one. I know most of the families and kids. It's the van loads that come from other areas that pisses me off. Got so bad I started keeping a separate bucket of cheap crap for them and only give them like 1 or 2 pieces each.

wondering where they'll all go since majority of the area was flooded. I know Easterly Lakes did not and i've seen first hand what goes on in that neighborhood but since my friends moved away from there i go to another friends house in a different neighborhood.

Sounds like you are the one that is making that connection. In your mind, poor equals black.

My neighborhood coordinates with some of the less fortunate neighborhoods in the area and they shuttle the kids in to go trick-or-treating. It's a nice, simple way to help out the community and provide a safe environment for the kids. It's a small inconvenience for some because the police block off the streets and divert traffic, but most everyone in the neighborhood association really enjoys it.

There are only a few streets in Denham that have restricted access for Trick or Treat due to the flood

We typically have 500-600 kids in our subdivision, planning to have close to double that this year

I don't mind at all, some of these kids lost everything

I would get several women holding babies that couldn't be more than a few months old and they were "trick or treating" when in reality it's the mom looking to get free candy because no way is the baby with no teeth eating candy!

Yea, god forbid they take their kid trick or treating for the memories. Is there any topic you aren't a complete doofus on?

ETA: And obviously I'm talking about the memory of the parents, not the baby.

So you would keep handing out candy when the vast majority of "trick or treaters" that are coming to your door are old enough to drive?

Yeah right

Oh I'm sure they are doing it for the memory. Anyone who lugs around their 2 month old for free candy should be ashamed.

Big shocker you can't find the problem with that.

Okay, now you're just being dense for the sake of it.

Sorry I don't believe in handing out candy to 16 year olds

Just out of curiosity, which part is the most shameful part of this thread?

I have no problem with kids from other neighborhoods coming to mine and enjoying trick or treating.

My problem came when the 13 - 18 year olds with no costume and Wal-Mart plastic bags came looking for free candy.

I'm not being dense. You claim most trick or treaters that came to your house could drive. You're full of shite just off that alone.

Gotcha. You know better who comes to my house for trick or treating than I do.

I never said I get a lot of kids. I don't, but over the years the numbers of those who are way too old for trick or treating outnumbered the young kids to the point that I don't want to deal with it anymore.

Already said I have no problem with giving kids from any neighborhood candy, nor am I opposed to kids going to better neighborhoods to get candy. The key word is "kid" and not teenager or adult.

You're trying too hard in this thread

So what's the equivalent of Scrooge for Halloween? At least I was able to give you your attention. Joke's on me I guess.
