Funny Pics of Parents Taking Halloween Candy

Halloween requires a lot from parents ― you have to help your kids find a costume, take them trick-or-treating (and/or hand out candy to the ones who stop by), and handle their inevitable sugar high.

You deserve some of the spoils of the holiday, whether that means sneaking some Skittles from your kids' bag while they're asleep, or keeping a hidden stash of Hershey's chocolates just for yourself.

Don't worry, you're not alone ― below are some hilarious parent tweeters who've shared their Halloween candy adventures. Enjoy, and good luck!

Parents 364 days a year: Don't take candy from strangers.

Parents on Halloween: Take candy from strangers. In the dark. And share with me.

Used the flashlight on my iPhone to stealthily pillage my kids' Halloween candy. Like some kind of MomGyver, amirite?

I'm so sorry.

I like to put the kids' Halloween candy into piles marked "acceptable, questionable & not even if this was the last drop of food on earth."

We're 4 weeks out from Halloween and I'm at peak anxiety that this will be the year my kids figure out how delicious peanut butter cups are.

I've never pled the 5th more than I have about eating this year's Halloween candy.

Midnight raid on the leftover Halloween candy gave me a horrible realization: somehow I raised a lousy trick-or-treater.#wheredidigowrong

It was almost the perfect crime: eat a piece of 6's Halloween candy while he's asleep. If only I'd buried the wrapper deep in the trash can.

Me: Sorry, kids, but no touching the candy until Halloween.

Also me: [Hides in my office eating fistfuls of the Halloween candy.]

I told my son, "That's so weird the tooth fairy took the rest of your Halloween candy. I thought she was only interested in teeth."

What kind of Halloween candy pairs well with red wine? *asking for a friend*

I'm home alone with the Halloween candy. This is not going to end well.

— Brian Hope (@Brianhopecomedy) November 2, 2015

I find that hiding Halloween candy in a Weight Watchers box works exceptionally well. I'm going to see if I can fit wine in the box too.

— Danielle Herzog (@martinisandmini) November 6, 2015

Me: Hey! Your mom said no more Halloween candy today.

3-year-old: *hands me a Snickers bar*

Me: I didn't see anything.

That magical hour when kids are asleep and parents can get to their Halloween candy unimpeded

I'm going to need Halloween to come sooner. My kids' stash of candy is getting low on varieties that I prefer. #parenting

Sometimes you just have to throw away a few sheets of perfectly good printer paper so it can hide all the candy wrappers in your trash can.

Six kids' worth of Halloween candy, & not a single York peppermint patty to be had.

It's like my neighbors don't even know me.

— Six Pack Mom (@Six_Pack_Mom) October 31, 2015

Wife hid the Halloween candy from me again. What she doesn't know is I have an empty snickers wrapper, a blood hound, and determination.

— Jeff (@usermcuserface) October 31, 2016

Already ate half the Halloween candy. You're welcome trick-or-treaters for saving you from getting cavities. I'm a giver.

— The Dose of Reality (@TheDoseTweets) October 28, 2015

Okay, it's time to separate all the Halloween candy from last night. Let's call this first pile, "Things Mommy Likes."

— Julie@NextLifeNOKids (@NextLifeNOKids) November 1, 2015

I'm celebrating 7 consecutive years of eating all the Halloween candy before Halloween and having to go back and buy more. Cheers!

— Robert Knop (@FatherWithTwins) October 31, 2016

There's a hole deep inside me that can only be filled with candy I've stolen from my children.
