Do Now I spoke to dozens of parents about how they handle Halloween candy, many of them fellow dietitians. On one side of the debate about candy-control are parents who avoid taking their kids trick-or-treating. They take them swimming or bowling instead. These parents say their kids haven't complained about missing out on the festivities. And there are the parents who subscribe to the "switch witch" or "candy fairy" approach. They take their kids trick-ort reating and may let them have a couple of pieces of candy that evening. But once the kids are in bed, the parents switch out the candy stash for a toy. Blaming the candy's disappearance on a witch or fairy helps displace any anger the kids might feel toward their parents.
