Halloween…WTF????
What happened to Halloween being celebrated by kids and adults alike, on the actual holiday??? When did things change and get to the point that kids can only go trick or treating on a weekend night and not on the actual holiday itself???
If Halloween was a holiday like Christmas, Easter or even a Columbus Day it would be celebrated on its actual day or atleast on a Monday giving everyone that works and extra day off but nooooooo, it is now celebrated either early or late and on a weekend night. That’s is utter bullshit.
Well kids have school tghe next day so they don’t need to be out….BULLSHIT. If it was a ballgame it would be more than ok. Let kids be kids and celebrate the holiday the same way most of us did when we were kids and that was on the actual day it came. We went to school the next day with no problem what so ever.
Have we as a society let christian fundamentalist get the upper hand and finally make things the way they were in the days of the Inquisition??? Have we let some other power dictate when we or our children can celebrate a holiday??? When in the hell did things get so F’ed up and out of control that our own children are being deprived of the joy that we had or atleast was able to partake in, when we were kids???
I know that alot of religious groups are against Halloween because of its various meanings and practices but alot of those same groups that might call the holiday a devil/demon worshipping day but yet they still let their owns kids dress up as witches and ghouls.
Despite what others might say or think just let kids celebrate as we once did and have their fun….after all, for the most part, this is THEIR day and time to celebrate.
Huh, guess that hasn’t hit the midwest because here in Iowa it is still celebrated on it’s original date no matter the day of the week.
