it's geography for me. to the right is a 7-11. but a 10 foot wall blocks me from that traffic. to the left is a house with two retirees with no grandkids. and i have a locked front gate 60 feet from the street. **** off trick and treaters. do some extra homework instead of begging for candy. little bastards.

But it used to be older kids, 6th grade or so, and junior high kids, who weren't with their parents. When I was in junior high, I was at a Halloween party and we did some trick and treating too just to get candy. That's the way it was then, not a child-parent activity. The times have really changed on that.

When I took my nieces last year, it was a mix, with the older kids generally doing it later.
Also, there has always been an element of child-parent activity in my area. You start off that way young and when you're closer to your preteens and in them, you usually go with friends.
I am coming to see it really depends on the area.
