I stopped trick-or-treating when I was 10. It just wasn't worth the trouble. I was allowed to trick-or-treat from the time I got home from Catholic school and got into costume, until the time my parents took me home to change into church clothes for the All Saints' Day vigil Mass. The church offered two vigil Masses, at 5:15 and 7:15, and my parents forced me to go with them to the 5:15 Mass. (Most parents let their kids go out and then took them to 7:15 Mass.) This left me, hmmm... half an hour of trick-or-treating time, all of it during broad daylight. It just wasn't fun.
