Some Christians think Halloween is fun and harmless, but since I was one of those "unpopular" moms that steered our kids away from Halloween, I enjoyed this post very much.

You're not alone. I hate Halloween with a passion.

I got a lot of grief from other people, including a lot of church people, about my stand on it and would not back down.

It is NOT fun and games beyond the surface of the trick or treating.

My kids did not participate either. I built a fire in our fire place, popped some popcorn, had some cheese and apples, and a little candy, and that was it. It kept them busy and distracted from all the other kids out there.

That sounds like fun! What did your kids think about it at the time, and what do they think about it now?
