Church parking lots are filled with cars with trunks of goodies for children to get from people who are not strangers. Then, churches and schools hold events for two reasons: to keep the children safe, and to keep the emphasis on fall festival activities.<br /><br />In spite of all the fear of people snatching or poisoning a kid and the fear of "evil" in the celebration, there are hordes (in the good sense) of children out with parents trailing along in the dark or parents letting them out of cars while parents cruise to the end of the block.Practical Parsimonyhttp://www.practical-parsimony.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3321084510373631678.post-1005003989279879472011-10-26T06:06:53.003-05:002011-10-26T06:06:53.003-05:00We don't decorate.

We take the boys to town to trick or treat, and they love all the houses with lots of decorations.Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11557512606416161272noreply@blogger.com
