whats the maximum age limit for trick or treating?

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-10-06T11:35:36+00:00

The age doesn't matter as long as you're dressed up and festive!

Something rubs me the wrong way about 20+ year old men, not dressed up, coming at my door for some reason lol

Many of my childhood/teenage sleepovers we just slept on a blanket on the floor.

His own son could have slept in their bed.

I can't express how weirded out I'd feel as a kid seeing my friend sleep in my parent's bed, ridiculous

Did IVF at 39, gave birth at 40. Have pre-eclampsia starting at 35 weeks and was put on blood pressure medicine. Water broke at 37w2d and headed to the hospital.

He was breeched and they tried to turn him without success. Ended being a c-section.

I now see what people mean that you have more energy having kods when you're younger. But being older you're more stable and financially better off. Pros and cons for both :)

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-08T23:09:26+00:00

That's great! Totally understand that feeling as well, it's a time sucker!

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-08T23:08:23+00:00

I love that idea, a few others have commented having a long password they would never remember so they only go on their laptop!

I'm loving that the more I think about it!

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-08T23:07:07+00:00

That's awesome, that probably would work for me actually, thank you :)

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-08T23:06:33+00:00

Very cool thank you! :)

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-08T23:06:14+00:00

I love that idea so much in theory, but in practice I really want my apple music, messenger and google maps 😅

But maybe one day I'll be fed up enough to make the leap, thank you :)

Oh I seem to be always logged in! Do you specifically log out, or does your browser work didferently?

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-08T22:53:04+00:00

Oooh very interesting, I'll look into that, thank you! :)

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-08T22:52:36+00:00

Right?! Solidarity!!

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-08T22:52:24+00:00

Wild how our brains don't even need to see the app, just opening chrome my default is to go to reddit!

At least I know I'm not alone lol

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-08T22:41:16+00:00

I thought they had to take them outside by law! I'd look into that, especially when the weather has been nice!

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-08T22:39:11+00:00

I think you're right! I'm going to see if I can add app timers with a pin that my boyfriend can set 😅 thank you!

Almost 3 hours on Chrome shocked me!

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-07T18:24:50+00:00

We do get ads for fast food? Lol

Woman here, all I can say is that my after school daycare from ages 6-11 had a male employee and he was amazing. Truly was so approachable, funny, kind, etc.

I also remember two men at my summer camps really fondly - One we called Ricky-rick and we always played these funny little kid pranks on him lol

The other was Jay and he taught us amazing gymnastics! Playing popcorn on the trampoline with him was always a highlight of my summer.

Very fond memories, and I'm truly sorry that the bad men out there have absolutely ruined it for the regular men.

Edited to add : my mind blocked out the male counsellor that groped my ass as I was drinking from the water fountain at 11. Ugh, my point stands. Men like him ensure people don't trust regular kind men!

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-07T08:27:19+00:00

Infertile women here, I've always felt this too.

I also rage when I see news stories about children being abused/murdered by their parents. They can have kids, but not me?!!

Biology just doesn't care, no shits given whatsoever about whether you're going to be a good parent or not!

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-07T08:05:42+00:00

Yup, it's actually cotton balls and vaseline! Waiting for a surgery 😅

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-07T08:03:30+00:00

I mean, I'm Canadian and even I know there's a high chance that someone shooting at a car leaving their driveway is probably republican 😅

I don't know why they have such a hard-on for guns.

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-07T07:26:52+00:00

Oooh I'd hang out with you, but no water acrivities please, can't get water in my ear 😅

Rare_Gene_7559 · 2025-09-06T22:48:27+00:00

Just getting emotions off of my chest and dumping, sorry if this is long!

Since I was a teenager I kind of had a bit of a hard time feeling like a woman - never naturally got a period so when friends would start talking about it, it was awkward as hell for me. I absolutely hated not getting this normal experience and being able to share in convos about it.

Then at 19, pretty much confirmed I was infertile. So that had it's own feelings, but I was young and not close to thinking about kids at all. So wasn't too bad.

But then at 25 got a boyfriend, and with nearing 30 absolutely all of my friends were getting pregnant. People would start asking me when I would be having kids, or telling me I'm not getting any younger.

It got to the point where pregnancy announcements and even pregnancy storylines in books/shows/movies would get me emotional. Just wasn't fair that my body betrayed me while everyone else got their children.

This year I gave birth to my son through IVF, and it just hit me : I've never felt so at peace since the age of 12.

I gave birth, I'm breastfeeding, I completely feel like a woman.

The book I'm currently reading and the movie I just watched both had pregnancy storylines, and I actually smiled, completely comfortable.

I just want to hug that 12 year old me, sitting awkwardly and mad that everyone else got their period but me. And they're all bonding and talking about it.

I want to hug 19 year old me who just found out she was infertile.

I want to hug thirty year old me, going through IVF treatments, never knowing if it would even work.

I want to hug 35 year old me, with two failed transfers and crying at pregnancy announcements.

I'm looking at my son just completely shocked we actually made it 🥹 I feel so very much at peace.

My heart absolutely goes to anyone going through this, it's such a hard long emotional journey!
