I gave my two year old a $1.00 flash light Cubfoods was advertising on Holloween. I tought her how to use it. She thought that was the best invention in the world, pointing the light to the stars, trees, cars, grass, and kids.

I walked along a well lite parkway, and went right up to the door with her at every house. Every other parent was no where near their children, allowing their kids to run off ahead of them.

If my child is not within arms reach, there is no more going out trick or treating. To many things can happen, but 95% of those things will not happen when an overly protective parent is facing the stranger nose to nose.
