Stop telling me i'm to old for Halloween, because I AM NOT. I am not going to let people stop me from having fun. Why does everything have to have a age limit on it? When I was younger, people used to always tell me that you will never be too old for anything. But as you grow older people start telling you the opposite.

Who am I hurting if I go Trick or Treating? Why is it a problem if I take one piece of candy from your house, you're most likely going to have so much left over after Halloween that you are going to end up throwing it out anyways.

The stories I have heard about people slamming doors on teenagers or older people trying to Trick or Treat sickness me. The sad part is the candy is not always for the older person, what if it was for a sick kid and you slammed the door in that persons face.

Judging people for having fun, is a dumb form of judgment. No matter how old you are you should still put on a costume and live in the Halloween spirit. Just the act of a little kids seeing an older person in the Halloween spirit is going to make that child so much happier.

Sometimes you need to think before you tell someone that they are to old to do something. You can forever be a child at heart and you should not have shame in doing things that make you happy. I encourage everyone to go out and trick or treat this year without feeling embarrassed about your age.

After all age is just a number. A number should not determine something as simple as dressing up and getting candy. Please don't let your Halloween be ruined by judgmental people.

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
