So ive spent last week getting bits and bobs for halloween ,nice snacks and sweets for my 3 dc as ive said no to going out in the cold trick or treating id got a lovely stash of stuff to have while watching a dvd ,well ive got back in earlier after taking my ds10 to the pictures to find that the oldest two 15 and 12 have found the stash and totally mullered it ,!,,im fuming and have said forget it come tomorrow night you can sit and watch soaps and do nothing and have nothing nice ,,, the dh is saying i can't do that if ive made plans i have to see them through and i can replace the stuff tomorrow when we go shopping ,,,,am i being unreasonable in saying not a chance they pinched it and noe they go without ????

The 15 year old should be dressing up and going out in the cold to a party and drinking cider

The 15 year olds round here who come to our door get a "you're too old for this" from DH and he sends them away Grin The girls are usually dressed up in 'sexy' halloween costumes, the boys just have a scream mask, same every year.

OP - you are right to be furious with your older DCs - I would be. Treat your youngest and let the older ones see the consequences of their actions

Cold? Its really mild here, they've just said the warmest October on record.

No way would I replace the treats except for the youngest.

I can't believe they went through a cupboard in your bedroom Shock. Seriously, I'm sure they're usually lovely, but no way would I replace the treats for the older ones.
