When does a kid become too old to go door-to-door mooching candy on Oct. 31? What about kids in the 13-18 class who don’t even bother with costumes? Do you dare tell them to take a hike?
The rule at our house was 13, but I don’t recall ever having to enforce it. My kids seemed to sense, on their own, that some things are best left to children. They had bigger fish to fry.
