wmw999 2,446 #4 November 3, 2009 It's not stealing if you helped them get it, and tell them "hand me the M&M's, please" Wendy P. There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

yoink 321 #9 November 4, 2009 I was confused enough that haloween seems to be about teaching children the basis of extortion, but now they need to understand that 'the boss' gets their cut too... Jeez. You want them to grow up fast, dontcha! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wolfriverjoe 1,523 #10 November 4, 2009 QuoteParents; Do you steal some of your kid's Halloween candy? I was over at a friend's house when her younger son returned from trick-or-treating. He came in, dumped out the bag, and offered his mom and me our choice of what we wanted (he did ask that we not take all of his favorites, but we could have one). She's done a pretty good job bringing them up IMHO."There are NO situations which do not call for a French Maid outfit."

BillyVance 34 #17 November 4, 2009 Hell yeah. Well, it's not exactly stealing. Like I said in the other thread, I'm entitled to half of the candy. Mostly the chocolates and sweet tarts.

But, sadly, this may be the last year for the "free" candy. He decided he was too old to go beggin' this year....until it came down to the wire and he decided to walk with his cousins.

gravityBad 0 #19 November 4, 2009 Oh yes! Without ever being caught during the actual theft, with chocolate stained teeth, cnady wrappers in inappropriate (guilty) places....both kids know exactly where to point the finger. Denial is my friend. They don't buy it! I actually think they must have some sort of new candy accounting app, because i can lift the most obscure piece of candy amonst the proverbial needle in a haystack mound of candy and still get busted. Still worth the going in stealth mode mode to score a few goodies. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Orchid 0 #21 November 4, 2009 Quote Parents; Do you steal some of your kid's Halloween candy? Not stealing, my children know I take 1/2 their candies to work. Though we didn't get 1/2 as much this year as we did last year, due to my son had the flu. I took my daughter trick/treating for just an hour, and she came back with 1/2 of the king size pillow case filled with candies.I checked their candies every year. I only keep the ones that are fully wrapped & sealed & of course their favorites. The rest, I take to work for the co-workers.

kmills0705 0 #25 November 4, 2009 Of course!!! Our neighborhood is big and spread out so every year one of the neighbors fills a big trailer with hay and all the kids get a hay ride from driveway to driveway. It was really nice. One house gave away candy and a popcorn ball. My oldest said "No thank you" to the popcorn ball. I said "I'll take her popcorn ball" :) So, now we all know... for me - it is all about the balls!
