It's Halloween ~ a favorite holiday for many of us who grew up before all the 'bad' connotations started being put on it.  Don't let the politically correct police ruin a wonderful holiday.  There are many parts of it that are quite good for children (young and old.)

       Peter Alsop says in his workshops that there are no such things as negative and positive emotions.  Rather, there are comfortable and uncomfortable emotions.  Uncomfortable emotions are important because they make us affect change.  We will all experience an uncomfortable emotion once in a while, if not even on a daily basis.  If we do not give children the experiences (in a safe environment) to feel those emotions and know they are safe, they will not have any tools to deal with them when they do happen.  And, they will.
