First Halloween not out trick or treating with my kid. 🎶And the cat’s in the cradle and the silver spoon…

My kids are taking my grandkids. I can't imagine having young ones now, older Gen X.

Not if you play the Ugly Kid Joe version as seen on music television.

My youngest made a dessert board for her Halloween movie night…with her husband! I’m not old. You’re old! https://preview.redd.it/kg07v2xsujyf1.jpeg?width=3024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=463e2040c273243cbbfb75988f8b110e2a9ac617

My asshole parents stopped showing interest in hanging out with my kids on Halloween years ago. I texted my mom today (when I didn't get a text from her) saying Happy Halloween... I have a new 3 year old and it was her first year trick or treating. Mom ignored the text...

My kids are 18 and 22. 18 year old is at college, 22 year old graduated and lives with his girlfriend/ they live together. This is the first year in 25 years I didn't decorate, buy candy, or turn my light on, sitting in a dark house, feeling guilty about the kids out trick or treating. I'll get over it.

Yeah except for people like me. I had kids at 40 and 46. My kid will stop trick or treating when I can pick early SS. I just did her first one this year at 4 and I'm 50....

My kids are in their 20’s it’s an adjustment when they are old enough to go themselves and worse when they stop altogether.
