Trick or Treating Controversy

http://ift.tt/1pMIF8s



I have to admit, I find this pretty interesting.



I once had this happen at my neighborhood where a van pulled up full of kids and teenagers, who were clearly not from the neighborhood, or even from a 10 mile radius. This happened against the next year only with several vans, and someone even had their home burglarized. Needless to say, the next year, police and the neighborhood watch were patrolling the neighborhood.



I have mixed feelings on this one.



On the one hand, I feel bad for poor kids who can't trick or treat in their own neighborhoods. And I'm certainly not going to not give kids candy because they live on the wrong side of the tracks.



On the other hand, parents busing their kids out to certain neighborhoods just to get candy does feel rather unneighborly. It seems almost exploitive.



Any thoughts?
