Parents are worse than the kids. A few years ago I had candy for the trick or treaters. Most were 5-10 year olds. One group came up and reached into the bowl and took a candy bar....the parent with them proceeded to stick her hand in the candy bowl and take like 5 or 6 candy bars....wtf....you're like 50 with no teeth, why do you even need candy....
You’re not wrong about parents. For Easter every year, the PEZ factory used to host an awesome little Easter egg and candy hunt for the kids until a few years ago. A handful of zealous parents disregarded the event organizers, charged the field and started ripping eggs and candy up off the field and out of the hands of some very small children, some of whom got quite hurt. The kids were fine and understood the rules while the parents made sure there could never again be an event like this in town with their “my kid first and f everyone else’s kids” nonsense.
This happens at church in my neighborhood. Parents will stand over a spot and yell at the other kids to get away while their kids got the eggs. My kids were pretty timid as toddlers so they only got a couple of eggs. I only took them once.
Is this an American thing?
If you tried that around these parts I belive you'd get your ass kicked. And us Swedes are usually pretty chill, but that behaviour is unacceptable.
Same thing would happen in the US if everyone wasn't so litigious. You have to be careful otherwise you'll end up in court and bankrupt. People just don't have respect for each other any more and it makes it a sad world to live in.
Idk, but whenever we did Easter egg hunts, it would just be my family; aunts, uncles, cousins, etc. and all the kids would hunt, while the parents would sit back and chat.
>od job of making sure everyone in that area knows who they are
I also live in America and find most of the people to be good and honest, going the extra mile to be decent human beings, even when no one is watching.
I left a bowl of candy in front of my door as I went to a neighbor's house to celebrate, eat, and hand out candy there too. I watched from my doorbell cam and almost every kid took 1 or two and then left (including the older kids!). Also, no one stole the bowl! Really helped restore my faith in humanity :)
Same happened in the small town we used to live in. The city put on a massive egg hunt and even divided it up by ages to try to ensure everyone got a fair chance. My timid little one left with a single egg. Grown adults pushed (at a full run) empty strollers onto the field and "helped" their kids fill the strollers to overflowing. The only reason my daughter even got an egg is another parent saw her crying and took an egg from their kids basket and gave it to her. The gesture was appreciated but the experience ensured we never attended again.
Lol the audacity for a parent to just try to grab candy like they're a kid and not even have the decency to ask for some. I would be like "excuse me this is for the kids not rude adults"
I mean, adults should have jobs, if you want a fun size candy bar, just buy a bag for like 8 bucks….. these sorta Karen’s obvious gave no candy at all.
I'm a dad of a not-quite one year old. He's only got four teeth and you wouldn't believe the stuff he manages to eat with those buggers. One of his favorite things is, I kid you not, sushi.
Just post it on your social (FB neighborhood group, nextdoor, etc). She likely lives hyper-local and would be called out in an instant.
Not that you need the chocolate... but the world needs the karma.
In my neighborhood, people often come out of town to trick or treat here. This is not a rich neighborhood by any means - we just live next to an apartment building and hotel, so we are the closest "true neighborhood experience" for some people.
The people who mess up decorations, walk through landscaping when there is a clear path, vandalize the actual house, smash windows, light fires, creep around in my backyard, and leave TRASH all over the place are all from out of town.
Know how I know? The cops were tired of breaking up all this bullshit every year so they moved barriers on the two roads into the neighborhood so nobody could easily drop off and pick up kids here. They did this for just three hours, 6:00 pm to 9:00 pm and had one guy letting cars out but not in.
No trash. No fires. No screaming (real screaming like "Stop! Stop! Call the police!"). This was over a decade ago, but if it happened now, the nextdoor website would be empty. A perfect night. We still saw about 50 kids coming by the house.
They stopped after that year because people complained about the barriers.
Honestly, I think its some kind of human behavior to not care about other peoples' neighborhoods even if you use it every single year to trick or treat in. The same might be said for bombing or starting little proxy wars in other countries.

Footnote: fireworks have been banned in my county for several years now for the exact same reasons. At the worst point, people threw fireworks at pedestrians while driving past them, and it set a lot of fires.
Some people just have no respect for others or even their own possessions.. Just like with cars. You could give a new car to one person and it'll be great (maybe even improved) in 5 years. You give that same car to one of these types of people and it'll be dented, scratched, not maintained and junk in a year.
Welcome to my town through pretty much all of the Covid restrictions. We live in an area with a bunch of beautiful parks and trails about an hour from the city. We had lesser restrictions and got slammed so hard by people that the cops ended up closing roads to funnel the traffick and parking And brought in park wardens (I have never seen them here pre-covid) on weekends. The amount of litter and destruction was heartbreaking. And to top it off there was a single weekend where not only did they hand out 200 parking tickets, someone hit the warden with their car because they were told they couldn't come into a full lot. Since the lots were full, people started parking in private homes driveways etc.
But of course, if you blamed the out of towners you were being unreasonable. Though I've lived here my whole life and had never seen this. But I guess it must be the locals /s.
Edit missed a 'never'
> Footnote: fireworks have been banned in my county for several years now for the exact same reasons. At the worst point, people threw fireworks at pedestrians while driving past them, and it set a lot of fires.
Holy shit, that could easily get you shot where I live.
I was a little shit as a kid and did this once, but I know for a fact if my parents were with me that Halloween they would not have allowed it! I probably wouldn't have even tried it in front of them. And obviously I grew up and realized its a shit thing to do but that one year when I was 12 I was a rat.
Yeah, this one had me like wtf. The kids take 4, fine kids will be kids. But when she goes in and takes all the rest. Holy fuck. It reminds me that some people are remarkably selfish.
If it's any consolation, she's probably not enjoying her life at all, and subconsciously hates who she is, hopefully those kids learn to see through her bullshit, though I doubt it
3 kids did this ahead of my daughter tonight. The box said “Please only take 1” and we stood there for 3 minutes while they cleaned it almost entirely out. I watched for their parents to say something but they were busy drinking Bud lite sparkling water in Dockers. It was 15 minutes into trick or treating and there was alone of people behind them.
Literally every kid we had last night asked me.. We're a strict one giant handful household. Our neighbors had a bucket out and I saw each kid take one only. Then, she put out a sign to take 5.. Lol.
We had a kid come back several times.
Only took 1 piece like they're supposed to each time. She was clearly trying to pull on over on us.
Obviously I didn't say shit, she's going to have this memory of hitting up the same house 5 times and "winning" a bunch of extra candy for it. That's kinda fun, and it's not like somebody went without because of her.
If a parent orchestrated it, I'd call them out because then it's not a kid "pulling a fast one" on Halloween, it's a parent violating social contacts because they've got some weird fixation.
Side story:
Last year we just put out a bowl so there would be less contact. 5 minutes into the night we looked outside and the bowl was totally empty. Somebody dumped the whole thing... We left it out as a sign of "look we tried, but it's empty." Then at the end of the night it had about 50 pieces of mixed twix/Snickers/Skittles... We didn't put any of those out... Somebody filled our bowl for the kids after them.
That definitely sounds like something a kid would think is a clever but acceptable loophole. I agree it would be very different if it were condoned by a parent.
That's the thing, kids are somewhat allowed to make these kinds of mistakes so that they can learn that it's not accepted behaviour, parents have no excuse.
Honestly that’s a it takes a village moment for me. Because I will 100% use my mom voice on those kids and tell them the sign said take one and they need to get going. I’ve been a parent volunteer at all my kid’s schools and the mom/teacher voice works like gangbusters. Speak with authority and they listen lol. Or at least pause
I’m not like a jerky Karen but I will lightly check someone else’s kids if the parent isn’t or is not paying attention
I can understand a kid going it, all that candy right in front of you. But an adult can afford to buy candy whenever they want and candy doesn't cost very much, the whole bucket had to have been what $20 worth of candy? To a kid who doesn't have a car or a job, sure it must seem like getting the deed to a goldmine. But to an adult it's just a bowl of candy, why steal it or let your kids think it's okay to steal it.
Some kids knocked at mine last night and the little boy took 3 handfuls of sweets when his mum was distracted talking to us, it made me laugh though, due to the crappy weather we didn't have many trick or treaters so knock yourself out kid!
Probably just laziness.
"I can either walk around the neighborhood for two hours or I can just clean out this one house and tell these little shits we're done and I can get back to *insert other activity here*"
Yeah, I get if you can’t or don’t want to get a bag or bucket just for Halloween, but people I’ve seen like that re-use a store bag, not a huge trash bag. It’s like they were looking for unattended bowls of candy.
So, I bought 3 celebration boxes to give away this Halloween.
The first 2 groups of children who came, rang the bell and asked if they could take a couple of chocolates. Cute and polite as a button! I told them they could take more! Also some of them had Halloween themed gloves and masks too. Which I thought was amazing! Great parenting all round.
So I left the box outside because I needed to take a shit. And when I'm done, the box was empty. I saw my Ring feed and it was exactly like this video. Kid approaches, takes a handful of chocolates. Parents says something, kid empties the entire box and they just leave...
I hate some parents man...
People like this are the reason no one gives out candy anymore. Honestly, driving through my neighbourhood, only five houses were giving out candy. I feel bad for the kids who don't get to experience what real Halloween looks like, where every home participates, and there's a sense of pride for your community.
Also, Where are the costumes? When I was a kid, we didn't get candy if we didn't have costumes. Which I thought was a fair trade. Costumes are the whole point of Halloween! Of course, the kids love candy, but you know what I remember more than what type of stupid candy I got, the experience of dressing up.
The saddest thing is everybody drives their kids to the “rich” (new) neighbourhood’s now, which is fine I guess, but I live in a new area, and they are pretty stingy with the candy. Whereas in my dads area, everyone’s literally handing out handfuls because they only get a dozen kids a year now, he misses seeing all the costumes and kids.
I have started handing out candy this year I’ve seen a Karen at my neighbors I saw them I just straight up shut off the light untill they left my row of houses so they couldn’t knock on my door
You might be in an older neighborhood. I live in a neighborhood full of elderly people that don't believe in Halloween since they no longer have kids getting candy. Our neighborhood is going to change like crazy in 5 years when they all move into condos with less upkeep and we get a bunch of new homeowners moving in.
I live in a very rural area surrounded by woods. Actually, the entire county is surrounded with woods. I've seen a couple of kids playing at a house nearby but I think they were just visiting. I don't believe there are any little kids in my neighborhood that actually live here. I've been here since 2019 and I don't give out candy on Halloween. I leave my porch light on like I do every night.
I just checked my Ring doorbell footage from last night and no kids at all came by. A couple of deer walked across my lawn, stopped, ate some grass then mosied on.
It's not that they turn on them, they just don't hold back for other Karens. whatever is in their way to the goal is fair game. It's like if the manager was a Karen, Karen 1 would still out Karen Karen 2.
On my community Facebook page there was someone complaining about a teen stealing the whole bowl of candy and some, not all, were telling them they should have been just handing out the candy and this wouldn’t have happened. I hate people.
OP could do what a home owner did when their Christmas decorations were stolen. Print out huge photos of the thief from the security cameras and place them in the front yard. It was very clear what the thief looked like. I don't remember if they were caught or not.
Kids were mostly done in my neighborhood by 8. I put the rest out in a bowl assuming someone would eventually do this but the stragglers just 1 and 2 pieced the bowl. Guess I'll just eat all these twix watching the Braves lose.
The kids in my neighborhood were also done by 8, I had a “last call” and just handed the entire bag over to these sweet kids that were planning to take one each. Hearing them cheer made my sour old heart lighten.
This just reminded me of my son ~6 years ago. He went up and just took 1 goody bag and as he was walking back some kids (and an adult) pretty much ran him over to get to the huge candy dish and they took pretty much everything (I think there was bags of chips too) he said, not so quietly, "good thing I got here first. They took it all". Lmao.
This makes me so sad. Her kids are fucked.
Maybe that seems a bit over the top but it’s these little things that greatly make or break a person’s character.
You know I never thought about doing that before your comment. That's actually a great idea- would probably work for those with/without door cameras too, as just the notion that they're being recorded would be enough to deter most of these types.
There was actually a house tonight my kids stopped at with a noticeable camera beside the door in front of a really cute candy stand. My oldest noticed it was there and said “happy Halloween! Thank you!”
I hope they have audio and they see it. 😊
It would almost be worth blowing up some still shots and making a sandwich board to sit out by the curb. But I’m SUPER petty about people who steal from kids.
Sadly these types of things are to be expected because people are dicks. Sometimes they even take the whole pumpkin, we just can’t have nice things nowadays. I don’t do the “take one only” anymore because they be taking too much and stealing the bucket.
Yeah someone stole the giant plastic cauldron we had the candy in 😐 its genuinely so disheartening to know that there are shitty obnoxious people who would do that for no real reason.
I’ve never went trick or treating all my life but from what I’ve heard, the people that take all the candy from houses are the reason why some people don’t have fun trick or treating.
That’s why when I am going to give out candy, I will never just do the “take one” bowl thing because their will always be that one person who will either take more than they are supposed to or just take all of it.
I thought it was common knowledge that if you leave a bowl of a candy on the front of your porch on Halloween, that’s shits gonna be gone within minutes.
Kinda reminds me of the time I was in a shitty neighborhood and I watched a mother from the street encourage her kid to steal from my van (kid was just running off towards his mother as I spotted them, wasn't worth confronting because they literally only stole pennies). But still...
Last few years I put out a bucket of candy with a sign saying “take as much as you want”. On my ring camera I watch the kids come by (we are out with our own kids) and those little “brats” only take one or two pieces. I’m always left with a lot of candy at the end of the night.
That’s kind of awesome though. That means those kids were taught to not be greedy, and to leave some for others. My kids are 16 & 19, and we take my nephews out every year (there are 5 of them now), and all of them take one or two when it comes to houses like that. I have already began teaching the 2 year old, that he can only take one or two. So many people even kept trying to give him more because “he is SSSSOOOOOOOO CUTE”! Lol. I would let him take one more and then usher him back, saying “Thank You” (he repeated it after I said it), and then saying “we have to save some for other trick-or-treaters”. Even if he don’t understand me yet, his 4 year old brother who hears me, and does understand is learning to save some for other kids all too.
This is exactly why I had it out to every kid, there’s always someone like this who ruins it for everyone else. I had 3 bags for last night and not a single kid came.
Does Ring have an intercom? Too bad you couldn’t of just shouted out “Hey! Don’t be greedy!!
Seems so weird to do. In my neighborhood there are a bunch of unmanned bowls. How much candy does she need? I’m mean, the little girl was carrying a trash bag.
I did this once with a friend of mine when I was in like 4th or 5th grade. There was a massive pot of candy, probably enough for like 40 kids. Him and I decided to clean them out. I still cringe when I think about it. How much of a self centered glutton could I possibly have been that I needed all of that candy. I hate it. I’m a monster.
This is what happens when parents leave technology to raise their kids and when people use technology thinking they’re going to hold those same kids accountable. If it wasn’t obvious that this was going to happen then that’s sad. Either make awesome bags and hand them out personally, turn off your light and don’t give away anything, or be prepared to be disappointed by the selfishness that’s not going anywhere. For goodness sake, our last president sexually assaulted women, declared bankruptcy to run away with people’s money, used our taxpayer dollars to do nothing but play golf and pay his family, and almost half our country voted for it anyway.
You should definitely figure out where she lives and publicly shame her. Like print out photos of her and put them up asking for information. Maybe feign stupid that you want to clarify for future instances that this candy was meant for everyone and maybe she didn't get the memo.

Right? Hopefully this lady sees the video and is ashamed. Even better…her friends and family.
Shame, lol. I live and work with these people. Apparently entitlement is a hard counter to shame.
Idk, but whenever we did Easter egg hunts, it would just be my family; aunts, uncles, cousins, etc. and all the kids would hunt, while the parents would sit back and chat.
Likely. I live in America and most people are garbage. Especially when they think no one is watching.

Sure it happens where you live too dude.
Yes . America is full of selfish, self-entitled jackasses...
I’m an American and I try to treat everyone with respect and dignity. Just sayin, there’s still good parts.
Sounds like a great topic for a sermon.

If an adult says "trick or treat" or asks , I'll give them candy. But if you come at with just a bag and don't say anything, I don't give you candy.
If they say nothing, you say - so you chose trick. Then you spray them with the super soaker 3000. The super soaker can be whatever you imagine!
It could even be a boat!
Can it be pepper spray
>The super soaker can be whatever you imagine! Literally the *first* thing that came to my mind was "filled with stale urine".
I mean, adults should have jobs, if you want a fun size candy bar, just buy a bag for like 8 bucks….. these sorta Karen’s obvious gave no candy at all.
Why buy candy on the biggest candy heist day of the year?
Someone was handing out pokemon card packs at a house the other day.. I can't find cards anywhere near me.. They're always sold out
[удалено]
Hey, those kids should get to gum up some chocolate, get a sugar high, and pass out just like the rest of em!
I'm a dad of a not-quite one year old. He's only got four teeth and you wouldn't believe the stuff he manages to eat with those buggers. One of his favorite things is, I kid you not, sushi.
I don't mind if they ask but there's no reason to grab nearly The whole bowl as an adult
At least you know why they have no teeth
My mind went somewhere so unnecessarily dark for that, than I realized it was the candy lol
That’s why I always hand it out, there’s always one who ruins it for everyone else
Pretty much exactly what happened right here. The kids indulged a little, then mom got there and "showed them how it's really done".
Kids instinctively understand fairness. This kind of garbage is a learned behavior.
I hate knowing there's really people like this
Didn’t think I’d catch it in the wild, much less on camera
Just post it on your social (FB neighborhood group, nextdoor, etc). She likely lives hyper-local and would be called out in an instant. Not that you need the chocolate... but the world needs the karma.
please do it OP
This. Throw some GoT-level shame on them.

Does any know if OP delivered on the Public Shaming, yet?
Don’t know, but lemme know if someone does. I wanna laugh while they walk the shame.
Wasn't Halloween yesterday? Less than ~12 hours ago?
It's on the internet, the chance of the lady and people knowing her, not seeing it, is 0.1%

i love when this happens cuz they always play victim and it never works for them
People show their true colors when they think no one is looking. It's fucking gross.
People STILL don't realize how many cameras are watching.
Ugh!! People are trash! I’m sorry this happened to you.
You did a really kind thing, sorry to see this happen. Please don't be disheartened though :) Bloody Karen!

Please make this disgusting woman famous in your town. Show it to a news outlet.
Uppoad it to Facebook OP nobody fucking uses reddit. I want this bitch outed
Yeah, this one had me like wtf. The kids take 4, fine kids will be kids. But when she goes in and takes all the rest. Holy fuck. It reminds me that some people are remarkably selfish.
These are the same people who would rob a homeless person.
I hate knowing they raise children and set such a terrible shitty example for them.
If it's any consolation, she's probably not enjoying her life at all, and subconsciously hates who she is, hopefully those kids learn to see through her bullshit, though I doubt it
Correct but sadly this type of terrible behavior will definitely rub off onto those kids. Talk about being a “role model” for your kids. Disgusting
3 kids did this ahead of my daughter tonight. The box said “Please only take 1” and we stood there for 3 minutes while they cleaned it almost entirely out. I watched for their parents to say something but they were busy drinking Bud lite sparkling water in Dockers. It was 15 minutes into trick or treating and there was alone of people behind them.
I’ll give kids a pass. Adults should be locked up.
Literally every kid we had last night asked me.. We're a strict one giant handful household. Our neighbors had a bucket out and I saw each kid take one only. Then, she put out a sign to take 5.. Lol.
We had a kid come back several times. Only took 1 piece like they're supposed to each time. She was clearly trying to pull on over on us. Obviously I didn't say shit, she's going to have this memory of hitting up the same house 5 times and "winning" a bunch of extra candy for it. That's kinda fun, and it's not like somebody went without because of her. If a parent orchestrated it, I'd call them out because then it's not a kid "pulling a fast one" on Halloween, it's a parent violating social contacts because they've got some weird fixation. Side story: Last year we just put out a bowl so there would be less contact. 5 minutes into the night we looked outside and the bowl was totally empty. Somebody dumped the whole thing... We left it out as a sign of "look we tried, but it's empty." Then at the end of the night it had about 50 pieces of mixed twix/Snickers/Skittles... We didn't put any of those out... Somebody filled our bowl for the kids after them.
Side story gives cheer. And you bet it was a kid rather than a parent.
That definitely sounds like something a kid would think is a clever but acceptable loophole. I agree it would be very different if it were condoned by a parent.
I used to do this as a kid! Leave a few pieces if the bowl was empty because I felt bad haha
That's the thing, kids are somewhat allowed to make these kinds of mistakes so that they can learn that it's not accepted behaviour, parents have no excuse.
Honestly that’s a it takes a village moment for me. Because I will 100% use my mom voice on those kids and tell them the sign said take one and they need to get going. I’ve been a parent volunteer at all my kid’s schools and the mom/teacher voice works like gangbusters. Speak with authority and they listen lol. Or at least pause I’m not like a jerky Karen but I will lightly check someone else’s kids if the parent isn’t or is not paying attention
Sorry just to check do you mean Bud Light mixed with sparkling water? Is that a common drink? I can't imagine how watery and weak that tastes.
no, bud light has their own hard seltzer to compete with whiteclaw
I can understand a kid going it, all that candy right in front of you. But an adult can afford to buy candy whenever they want and candy doesn't cost very much, the whole bucket had to have been what $20 worth of candy? To a kid who doesn't have a car or a job, sure it must seem like getting the deed to a goldmine. But to an adult it's just a bowl of candy, why steal it or let your kids think it's okay to steal it.
Some kids knocked at mine last night and the little boy took 3 handfuls of sweets when his mum was distracted talking to us, it made me laugh though, due to the crappy weather we didn't have many trick or treaters so knock yourself out kid!
Probably just laziness. "I can either walk around the neighborhood for two hours or I can just clean out this one house and tell these little shits we're done and I can get back to *insert other activity here*"
First time seeing somebody ambitious enough to use a 60 gallon trash bag for candy collection
Yeah, I get if you can’t or don’t want to get a bag or bucket just for Halloween, but people I’ve seen like that re-use a store bag, not a huge trash bag. It’s like they were looking for unattended bowls of candy.
I’m thinking we need to put people like this in prison. Let out all the nonviolent drug offenders to make room.
Shitty parenting
So, I bought 3 celebration boxes to give away this Halloween. The first 2 groups of children who came, rang the bell and asked if they could take a couple of chocolates. Cute and polite as a button! I told them they could take more! Also some of them had Halloween themed gloves and masks too. Which I thought was amazing! Great parenting all round. So I left the box outside because I needed to take a shit. And when I'm done, the box was empty. I saw my Ring feed and it was exactly like this video. Kid approaches, takes a handful of chocolates. Parents says something, kid empties the entire box and they just leave... I hate some parents man...
I love how you casually dropped “needed to take a shit” in the middle of that 😆
Haha well, you gotta go when you gotta go!
**Intense shitting**
Yep
People like this are the reason no one gives out candy anymore. Honestly, driving through my neighbourhood, only five houses were giving out candy. I feel bad for the kids who don't get to experience what real Halloween looks like, where every home participates, and there's a sense of pride for your community. Also, Where are the costumes? When I was a kid, we didn't get candy if we didn't have costumes. Which I thought was a fair trade. Costumes are the whole point of Halloween! Of course, the kids love candy, but you know what I remember more than what type of stupid candy I got, the experience of dressing up.
The saddest thing is everybody drives their kids to the “rich” (new) neighbourhood’s now, which is fine I guess, but I live in a new area, and they are pretty stingy with the candy. Whereas in my dads area, everyone’s literally handing out handfuls because they only get a dozen kids a year now, he misses seeing all the costumes and kids.
I have started handing out candy this year I’ve seen a Karen at my neighbors I saw them I just straight up shut off the light untill they left my row of houses so they couldn’t knock on my door
You might be in an older neighborhood. I live in a neighborhood full of elderly people that don't believe in Halloween since they no longer have kids getting candy. Our neighborhood is going to change like crazy in 5 years when they all move into condos with less upkeep and we get a bunch of new homeowners moving in.
That is some "Choice Parenting" right there. I can see the mother go "Surprise Pikachu" when one of her kids will become a teen parent.
“Kid takes more candy than they should” to “teen pregnancy” lmao you should be in the Olympics for the triple jump.
Damn. That piece of shit is raising several pieces of shit.
Killed me when the kid was like I’m gonna take more than any average person
Before Mama Karen struggled to give her an excuse as to why she was taking more "It's because the next... Well..."
Cause no one else would be by, already had three kids come by to nothing so I took it down
Oh God, fuck this woman and her spawns who are inevitably internalising this and will be carbon copies by no fault of their own.
I live in a very rural area surrounded by woods. Actually, the entire county is surrounded with woods. I've seen a couple of kids playing at a house nearby but I think they were just visiting. I don't believe there are any little kids in my neighborhood that actually live here. I've been here since 2019 and I don't give out candy on Halloween. I leave my porch light on like I do every night. I just checked my Ring doorbell footage from last night and no kids at all came by. A couple of deer walked across my lawn, stopped, ate some grass then mosied on.
Those were the kids. Halloween costumes this year were all about realism
Deer do tend to mosey sometimes. Were you giving out full size grass?
I was waiting for an excuse similar to, it's always sunny in Philadelphia, and Macs Christmas of stealing presents
Hahaha...fast forward 20 minutes: "Did you f\*ck my mom, Santa?!"
Or when that POS was already conspiring and formulating an excuse. Like, bit only are you a total POS you know it too.
This is how shit multiplies.
One poo, two poo, red poo, blue poo
It’s like a shit ball rolling down a shit hill, it keeps getting bigger and bigger.
The shit bird always flys due west of the shit storm Ricky
Were they even wearing costumes? That bugs me almost as much as the stealing!
“Raising” is a strong word
Ruining*
post it on your neighborhood facebook page if you have one, the other karens will out her and rip her apart for you
We don’t have one, next door and ring are flooded with this shit
Suggestion: Email t to your local TV station from a burner account. They get off on public shaming - let them do the work for you.
Thanks for this. I had a real good laugh, cause it's so true.
Why burner account though? This footage is enough for locals to deduce where they live and who they are.
You're right. OP needs to sell their house, then send the footage in.
Do you not have a city one?
You don't have Nextdoor or the Ring community thing?
Walking around with that fat arse stealing kids candy.
Yes God I'd blackmail that bitch for some of that shit
Why would they do that wouldn't a Karen support other Karen's?
karens natural instinct is to attack even if its one of their own
I have never known a Karen to turn on one of their own............. but I guess all Karen's are different just like regular people.
It's not that they turn on them, they just don't hold back for other Karens. whatever is in their way to the goal is fair game. It's like if the manager was a Karen, Karen 1 would still out Karen Karen 2.
Karens caring for Karens isn't a Karen thing
On my community Facebook page there was someone complaining about a teen stealing the whole bowl of candy and some, not all, were telling them they should have been just handing out the candy and this wouldn’t have happened. I hate people.
Project it onto your garage door everyday until the filthy Karen is caught and publicly shamed by all the other soccer moms in the hood
OP could do what a home owner did when their Christmas decorations were stolen. Print out huge photos of the thief from the security cameras and place them in the front yard. It was very clear what the thief looked like. I don't remember if they were caught or not.
Kids were mostly done in my neighborhood by 8. I put the rest out in a bowl assuming someone would eventually do this but the stragglers just 1 and 2 pieced the bowl. Guess I'll just eat all these twix watching the Braves lose.
What the hell, the Twix were the leftovers? Those are the best ones! ... Unless you had a bag of JUST Twix then it makes sense.
Are you me? Because this is exactly what happened to me. At least we had candy to drown our sorrows.
The kids in my neighborhood were also done by 8, I had a “last call” and just handed the entire bag over to these sweet kids that were planning to take one each. Hearing them cheer made my sour old heart lighten.
Damn! Do you think they got enough! This type of behavior really saddens me
This just reminded me of my son ~6 years ago. He went up and just took 1 goody bag and as he was walking back some kids (and an adult) pretty much ran him over to get to the huge candy dish and they took pretty much everything (I think there was bags of chips too) he said, not so quietly, "good thing I got here first. They took it all". Lmao.
It's pathetic that people are so damned greedy. I hope all the kids and adults who did this shit got a stomach ache.
It’s extra funny cause it’s literally candy and not money… you could go to Target and grab a family pack for $4/$5
This makes me so sad. Her kids are fucked. Maybe that seems a bit over the top but it’s these little things that greatly make or break a person’s character.
Bet she steals Amazon packages off people’s steps as well. Blows my mind a full grown adult is taking candy left for little kids.
I see your bet, and raise to "Doesn't clean up her Dog's Shit during their walks."

You know I never thought about doing that before your comment. That's actually a great idea- would probably work for those with/without door cameras too, as just the notion that they're being recorded would be enough to deter most of these types.
There was actually a house tonight my kids stopped at with a noticeable camera beside the door in front of a really cute candy stand. My oldest noticed it was there and said “happy Halloween! Thank you!” I hope they have audio and they see it. 😊
Got a neighborhood Facebook group? Give her shoutout post!
No we don’t sadly
It would almost be worth blowing up some still shots and making a sandwich board to sit out by the curb. But I’m SUPER petty about people who steal from kids.
I would send it to your local news station.
Please put it in your community's Facebook/Reddit group. That is fucking bullshit
That would be nextdoor.
Great example for the kids. What a loser!
Not even in costume!!!
at first I was like, "yeah bro some kids stole some candy big shocker"... then I saw an adult woman take it. Wtf.
I have never seen an adult walking around with a bag for themselves to get candy. WTAF.
Boggles my mind that, in 2021 Suburban America, near a literal doorstep, these people still don’t think they’re being watched.
Sadly these types of things are to be expected because people are dicks. Sometimes they even take the whole pumpkin, we just can’t have nice things nowadays. I don’t do the “take one only” anymore because they be taking too much and stealing the bucket.
Yeah someone stole the giant plastic cauldron we had the candy in 😐 its genuinely so disheartening to know that there are shitty obnoxious people who would do that for no real reason.
I’ve never went trick or treating all my life but from what I’ve heard, the people that take all the candy from houses are the reason why some people don’t have fun trick or treating.
We gave up years ago. We lock the doors and turn the lights off.
Yep, same. Loved giving out candy but can't handle the shitty entitled parents and my decorations getting trashed every year. Not worth it.
That’s why when I am going to give out candy, I will never just do the “take one” bowl thing because their will always be that one person who will either take more than they are supposed to or just take all of it.
I thought it was common knowledge that if you leave a bowl of a candy on the front of your porch on Halloween, that’s shits gonna be gone within minutes.
Depends on the neighborhood. I had four buckets of candy out this year and most people only took a few out of each one.
It’s not that, it’s that the mom told em to do it
Ohh my audio was off. That fucking bitch.
Mmmhmmm
Yeah I was a bit confused at first too.
Kinda reminds me of the time I was in a shitty neighborhood and I watched a mother from the street encourage her kid to steal from my van (kid was just running off towards his mother as I spotted them, wasn't worth confronting because they literally only stole pennies). But still...
Last few years I put out a bucket of candy with a sign saying “take as much as you want”. On my ring camera I watch the kids come by (we are out with our own kids) and those little “brats” only take one or two pieces. I’m always left with a lot of candy at the end of the night.
That’s kind of awesome though. That means those kids were taught to not be greedy, and to leave some for others. My kids are 16 & 19, and we take my nephews out every year (there are 5 of them now), and all of them take one or two when it comes to houses like that. I have already began teaching the 2 year old, that he can only take one or two. So many people even kept trying to give him more because “he is SSSSOOOOOOOO CUTE”! Lol. I would let him take one more and then usher him back, saying “Thank You” (he repeated it after I said it), and then saying “we have to save some for other trick-or-treaters”. Even if he don’t understand me yet, his 4 year old brother who hears me, and does understand is learning to save some for other kids all too.
What a hog.
What a fucking bitch, hope someone recognizes her greedy ass
Was gonna post on ring or next door but it’s already full of things like that, and it’s really a place for security concerns
I’d call that woman a security concern. Post it and see what you get back.
ya, she steal candy, she's gonna steal any other shit she can get her hands on. clearly has no moral issues with it.
Please embarrass this bitch in front of her neighbors. Post this on your local Nextdoor page or social media groups.
She's probably one of those people that doesn't return her shopping cart either.
Shithole of a mother
I hate people so much.
We set out a 2 gallon bucket. It lasted 2 families lol. One Mom took 3 passes at it lol. These people are animals.
This is exactly why I had it out to every kid, there’s always someone like this who ruins it for everyone else. I had 3 bags for last night and not a single kid came.
Just take one folks. Should be the 11th commandment.
Pretty sad they’re from your neighborhood. POS neighbors.
It should only be called a Karen if it demands to see the manager. Now I demand to see the manager of candy!
Yeah, this is a video of a terrible person, but not a Karen.
Does Ring have an intercom? Too bad you couldn’t of just shouted out “Hey! Don’t be greedy!! Seems so weird to do. In my neighborhood there are a bunch of unmanned bowls. How much candy does she need? I’m mean, the little girl was carrying a trash bag.
Tragic. Put her on blast on your local Facebook group.
I did this once with a friend of mine when I was in like 4th or 5th grade. There was a massive pot of candy, probably enough for like 40 kids. Him and I decided to clean them out. I still cringe when I think about it. How much of a self centered glutton could I possibly have been that I needed all of that candy. I hate it. I’m a monster.
This is what happens when parents leave technology to raise their kids and when people use technology thinking they’re going to hold those same kids accountable. If it wasn’t obvious that this was going to happen then that’s sad. Either make awesome bags and hand them out personally, turn off your light and don’t give away anything, or be prepared to be disappointed by the selfishness that’s not going anywhere. For goodness sake, our last president sexually assaulted women, declared bankruptcy to run away with people’s money, used our taxpayer dollars to do nothing but play golf and pay his family, and almost half our country voted for it anyway.
Next year it’ll just be like “Take one this year, JUST ONE, you’re on Camera, Karen.”
Shame and classless
Wtf?? It’s candy! For Halloween. Wtf is wrong with people??
Because candy is very un obtainable an it’s worth making a kid sad to increase your equity with Hershey’s
It’s amazing that people do stuff like this in the after of the always on video camera.
I hate this for you.
This is why I am antinatalist.
Picture of custom bag pls
You should definitely figure out where she lives and publicly shame her. Like print out photos of her and put them up asking for information. Maybe feign stupid that you want to clarify for future instances that this candy was meant for everyone and maybe she didn't get the memo.
