The Children Are Our Future
By Jordan Chittley
Most children can't wait to collect candy on Halloween
night, but when homeowners don't hand out treats some dire consequences can
follow.
Some kids calling themselves Children of the Hood
wrote a letter to one homeowner in Oshawa,
Ont.explaining that he missed Halloween and left the letter in his mailbox.
They write that the lady who used to own the house handed out candy apples,
"but last night there were no candy apples. Come to think of it there was
no candy at all from your home!"
The kids explain the mistake and say the homeowner can
fix it next year by passing out chocolate bars. They say they will understand
he probably can't make candy apples because he is a guy and that they receive
too many bags of chips so chocolate bars are the perfect solution. Another way
to rectify the issue is for the homeowner to deliver candy to the children on
Saturday because they will probably have eaten all of their candy from
Halloween by then.
But the homeowner didn't deliver any candy, instead he
posted the note on Kijiji saying he is
looking for the author.
"Dear Children of Entitlement (and likely their
parents)," starts the Kijiji post. "You have gone ahead and reminded
me of why I do not want children, and why I weep for the future."
The homeowner says he was not home on Halloween and
has bought a huge amount of candy, which he will enjoy with his friends on
Saturday.
