Although it has somewhat to do with kids maturity levels(or rather, the maturity people and society seem to force upon kids) I also think Halloween participation has largely to go with the area you live in. To be blunt, poor people dont want to give out candy. I drove through come neighborhoods on tues going home and saw TONS of little kids flooding the streets, begging to be hit by a car. I think when people stop saying "kids grow up so fast nowadays" they will actually slow down, and maybe do some halloweenage. and yes, halloweenage is a real word. Use it, love it.
