RE: Trick or Treating Bitch
Those kids would have made me upset too! According to DH (the official candy-hander-outer) we had all very polite kids, including a few teens out with their 4-ish year old sibling who were not getting any candy for themselves, but one of the big brothers asked very politely if he could take one of the granola bars because he loved them. DH was so impressed with those teenagers he actually told me about them as soon as we came home. And shockingly, since we normally have them every year, no costume-less teenagers showed up and grabbed handfuls of candy without so much as a thank you or anything.
DD was pretty good about saying "thank you" at the houses I brought her to, but did need some prompting. Everyone was gushing so much over her costume and giving her so much extra candy that I was a little embarrassed!
Oh, and I probably wouldn't have thought of it quickly enough, but if I'd had that nasty little girl I would have just said, "well, you don't have to take anything then!" and closed the door. That's just rude!
