I was just wondering what people are doing for Halloween this year.
My daughter is looking forward to trick-or-treating this year, but I don't feel 100% about doing that in our neighborhood (apartment complex, not many kids, lots of teens, several young adults in gang style clothes). Maybe it's just that I don't know so many people here. Mom-in-law suggested that I take her to a nice neighborhood for it, so I thought I might take her to our old one. We used to live here two years ago before a stint in CA. I just don't feel really good about that, you know? Not that the people would probably know, but still . . .
Other neighborhoods I've lived in have done away with trick-or-treat altogether. Often the homeowners' association does something at a park. We haven't found a church home yet, but I know lots of churches have parties too. I don't think my kid would go for that though, she really likes the candy!
