The issue with this should be pretty obvious, but let’s keep moving.Īccording to, this trend began in 2018 with a Facebook post by a woman named Alicia Plumer, who came up with the idea to help her 21-year-old autistic son. This is meant to signal to the adults handing out candy that a kid holding a blue bucket who does not say “trick-or-treat” is autistic, and that they should still receive candy. I had never heard of this before, but after some further research, I learned that the idea behind this movement is that autistic children should carry blue candy buckets when trick-or-treating to symbolize that they are autistic and may have communication difficulties. They deserve to enjoy Halloween like everyone else.” The caption reads, “Blue baskets are meant for kids with autism that cannot communicate with others, so if someone knocks and doesn’t say trick-or-treat, don’t take it as them being rude or weird.

The photo depicts a Walmart end-cap full of blue candy buckets shaped like Jack-o’-lanterns. Recently, I came across a shared post on Facebook, though I don’t know who the original creator is. This is most definitely true with the blue bucket trend. Thus, it becomes all-too-common for non-autistics to inadvertently annoy or even unintentionally hurt the autistic community with actions that they intend to be helpful. While this is nice enough in theory, the fact that autism is more neurological than it is physical means that it is much more misunderstood by those who are not neurodivergent. There seems to be no shortage of well-intentioned neurotypical people who try to help the autistic community however they can.
