Today, I took my two and a half year-old son Trick or Treating for the first time in our new neighborhood. At the very first house, a girl told us we were too early and slammed the door in our face. My son cried. FML

Gtca tells us more.

OP here! A lot of these comments are hilarious! Thanks for that and for those that showed us some support and sympathy. We started trick or treating at 5:15. Apparently trick or treating kicks up in our neighborhood around 6/6:30. Now I know. When I went trick or treating when I was younger, everyone started around 4 and people were prepared. Besides, how hard is it put some candy in a bowl? Also, some people commented about why a 2.5 year old needs candy, he doesn't, but we went for the experience. Luckily, we rebounded and had a fun Halloween after that incident.

my son is just turned one and is passed out by 7 we started trick or treating early too at 6 and were done by 7 fyi for those who asked why so early obviously don't have kids and don't know what its like to deal with an over tired baby that doesn't stay asleep when u bring him/her in from the car.

Why would you take a two year old trick or treating? That's just stupid.

Yeah, real stupid. Letting a kid have fun and be involved in a community activity.

In this case if I were you, I would've switched to straight out "trick" mode. Like they say, Trick or Treat right? No treat... time to trick. So be planning for next year. lol
