We have had two trick-or-treaters in 17 years since we have been here.
And they were just waiting for their mom to come out and drive them elsewhere.

Now in the last three years we have had twelve kids on a night before trick-or-treat night that is a night our neighborhood has its own trick-or-treat night and a neighborhood party.

It is great.

And on the school not having a Halloween costume parade at school it may have more to do with the many different people we now have in our schools and the fact that their customs or culture does not allow them to do things like Halloween or dress up.

I was at a thrift store buying Halloween stuff and the girl at the counter asked if I was having a party, I then asked her if she was going to dress up for Halloween and she said,
that "her culture does not allow them to do things like Halloween or dress up"

So it may be easier to tell you it's because of the poor people than to open a can of worms like that.

Odd how we are not supposed to offend or keep people from their culture and customs while our culture and customs get berated everyday more and more.

Glad I don't have a kid I would be at that school fighting all the BS they put our kids through daily.

Ha! Ha! now that is curmudgeony, But true.

Now go and decorate your house for Halloween.
