SOUND OFF: How old is too old to trick-or-treat?
Growing up as a child getting ready to go trick-or-treating I remember my father jokingly asking me year after year, "Don't you think you're a little old for that?"
Every year the answer was always "Of course not!" That answer remained the same until my freshman year of high school when a school dance sounded like a better idea. My father's constant jesting does create an interesting question, how old is too old to trick-or-treat?
Cities like Belleville, Ill. have come up with an answer to that question in the form of a city ordinance: only children aged 12 and younger are permitted, under this ordinance, to trick-or-treat. Anyone older than that caught trick-or-treating faces a $100 fine.
Ordinances like this one haven't made their way to Alabama...yet. So we're giving you the chance to answer, should there be an age limit to trick-or-treating? Is this something a city should have a say in?
