A new law limits the age of trick-or-treaters

 

As i was watching the news this morning while getting ready for school, I was shocked when I heard about a law that limits the age of trick or treaters.

Certain cities around the world are speaking out, Salt Lake City in particular, has set a law that prohibits trick or treating past the age of 11.

Children over the age of 11 are disappointed with this law being set. Children or people over the age limit set by law may be ticketed or fined if they do not follow the law.

Sales associate Desiree Edgar, of the Halloween City store in Salt Lake said ” “I really wish we could all go trick-or-treating, but when you get more responsibilities, that’s when you have to leave things like that behind.”

Maybe it is reasonable to some people, but i personally believe that we should enjoy our teenage years as the last years of our youth. If there is no harm being done, i see no problem with trick or treating past the age of 11, as long as you are not doing it when you hit your twenties because that is just creepy.
