trick or treating

I think the proper age to stop trick or treating is around 13 or 14 years of age. They are becoming young teenagers or young adults and it isn't very adult-like to go trick or treating for candy. I stopped trick or treating when I was about 13 years old. I was becoming a mature young lady and it just wasn't very mature of me to walk around asking for candy. My parents really didn't make me stop doing it. I pretty much stopped on my own. I simply grew out of it.

I stopped around 10 just because it got boring after awhile and my neighborhood didn't have too many kids in it. I think 10-12 is good, because some 12 year olds still have the mind and body of people considerably younger, but a teenager should NEVER go trick-or-treating.
