What makes it worse is that in the States it seems to be a far less threatening occasion. We nick it and bring it over here, and promptly exploit ways to make it a negative and intimidating event.
Halloween is a worrying time for those of us who have elderly parents who are disabled especially those who live alone.
I wish that something could be put in place to stop the children knocking disabled peoples doors on the 31st of October..its a concern to a vast amount of people who care for their parents in later life.
