Do not eat candy as you go. Always be nice, even when people do not have any candy to give out. Do not knock on doors where lights are off. Watch where you step! Have a plan before you start. If you are walking in an unfamiliar neighborhood, it is easy to get lost. When you approach a treat giving house, make sure to yell "Trick or Treat!" very loudly! When you get home, check all of candy before allowing children to eat any of it. You are looking for: -old worn wrappers -torn wrappers (even with smallest hole) -home made treats -unwrapped treats -toys with small parts that may be a chocking hazard -money (change) -fruit -any candy that looks like it may have been tampered with. -for small children, remove any hard candies. They tend to become slick once in mouth and can quickly become a choking hazard. -lickable stamps -glass or sharp objectsIf you find any of above mentioned items, its best to discard them-trust me, there will still be plenty of treats to go around afterwards!! Have a safe and Fun Halloween-and take lots of pictures!

Parents, who enforce rules, in love for their growing kids, expect those kids to obey rules, or else; similarly, when dealing with adults, mutual respect and admiration can only be realized, when two parties respect commandments of each other. Since they must have very similar likes in first instance, to be able to go together, recognizing grey areas and communicating these effectively, early on in relationship will guide that true love is found. Adherence or not to this will be a red flag, which may point to chauvinism. In future articles, I will dwell on differences between love and being in love and testing for true love; core areas which are often confusing in complex mix of male-female relations. ************************************************************************ Knowledge is NOT power; it is only empowering….The Application of Knowledge IS power. ************************************************************************
