well i hope that the kid ran home crying.
what the hell kind of a parent would allow a small child in this day and age to go door to door all alone.

I'm surprised no one thought of that before.

Blame the parents. Always blame the parents.

If anything bad happens to a kid,let's just blame the parents,saves us taking a community resposibility for those who will be caring for us when we are too old to care for ourselves.

There's one question that I'd like to ask though,in this day and age what kind of organisation allows its funding to be gathered from young kids selling candy door-to-door,unsupervised,and at the mercy of strangers?Is any charity or social group that important that it worth asking children to risk their necks to provide the money?

When my kids need money for their sports clubs,school trips etc,it come straight out of my pocket.'Fundraising' is just a polite term for begging.Do we really need beggars on the streets for these causes,or have we simply forgotten how to pay our own way?

No I say! Let the dogs chase them down!!! That way if they survive they must have some sort of natual gift for running, and can support themselves by using this ability in the sports world!
