I can't decide if I want to celebrate it or start a drive to get it banned. Other times, when I consider all the mayhem and horror than can happen on Halloween night, I think, perhaps as you do, this has to stop.
Adults tend to be divided on the subject.
Some say Halloween is a tradition, one they remember fondly, and want their children to remember, as well. They say it stimulates children's imaginations, gives them a sense of belonging to a community, and most of all, well, it allows them to be kids. Others say Halloween not only endangers children, it celebrates horror and evil. What's more, they say, candy rots kids' teeth and makes them hyper as Tasmanian devils. And monster masks tend to frighten pets, especially your more highly-strung breeds of dogs.
