This article is about how many kids are eating so much candy on Halloween. Many parents are trying to keep their kids from getting overweight. Already around 30 percent of children ages 2 to 19 are overweight or obese. Some people say that they give out toys instead of candy now so that they can avoid having their kids get overweight. The article also said on average people are spending about 20 dollars on candy for Halloween. If you really think about it that is a lot of candy. The big packs of mixed candy are like 2 dollars. Each of those has a hundred pieces or so. If you buy 20 dollars worth that would be a lot of candy.

My neighbors and my parents only let us eat one piece of candy a day. My parents used to not let me eat my candy. Like i could only eat a piece every so often, so then it lasted for a long time. So maybe all parents should do this then their kids won't get obese!
