Trick-or-Treating at What Age?

On the way to drop the boys off at school yesterday, we were listening to a radio show and the topic was trick-or-treating.  I have fond memories of trick-or-treating as a little girl, probably up to my early teens.  Then after that, I was happy if we bought bags of candy as a family, sat [...]
