Today, I got my two-year-old's Halloween costume in the mail. I tried it on him to make sure it fit. He loves it so much that he is now having a complete meltdown because he wants to go trick-or-treating. He doesn't understand we only go trick-or-treating on Halloween. 23 more days to go. FML

mattrd_fml tells us more.

OP here! First off, for all the people inquiring about what the costume is, it is a plush dinosaur that his legs go into and his upper half sticks out of it. You can see a picture of it if you search "dinosaur" at costume express. And the issue isnt that he loves the costume, in fact he hated putting it on at first. The issue is that he wants candy and he wants candy RIGHT NOW. Thanks for all the suggestions. But now that a day has gone by, the costume is in a closet and he seems to have forgotten all about it.

My candy never got past the second day. My father would be passed out on the floor surrounded by candy wrappers

Awww, give him some candy at least to cheer him up!

Yeah, nothing like a little positive reinforcement for bad behavior.

Why not just take him really quick to a candy store? He can "scare" the cashier (with a neatly placed $20) and enjoy his take of "free" candy.

Instead of paying for 'Free Candy' they can get /Free Candy/at no charge. There's a white van that gives away free candy at my neighborhood. I like to go there despite the blackouts and waking up at a ditch every time. Totally worth it though.

well...I look forward to seeing you in the news

Remember that he's a 2 year old. Give it a couple of days and he'll move on to something else.

I was about to comment this :) two year olds aren't exactly good at hanging on to one emotion for long

Did you try turning it off and on

Hiya. Im new to this site and it keeps saying " not specified" when i put in the information. I have no idea what im doing wrong ! :( can someone please help me !?

I'm curious as to what the costume is..

Buy candy and have him come to the door multiple times and give him candy. Tell him you guys are practicing for it (: maybe he would do that instead.

Early sugar rush for him. I want candy too! Sharing is caring!

Tell that to all the women I've given the clap to. They won't listen when I say it :(
