Kids going out of their neighborhood to get better treats is just a fact of life.
Teenagers not wearing costumes, though - while a fact of life, it’s also a fact of life that it doesn’t entitle them to candy. I think you need to figure out a compromise where whoever shows up in costume can get candy.
I second this.
The social contract for Halloween is: show up in a costume; get candy.
