My sister is 23 and still dresses up and goes out knocking doors for candy... and I find it weird but I let her do her. It got me thinking, at what age do you think someone should stop Trick r Treating at? Just curious.

Pretty sure they mean they leave their sister to do as she pleases, and not shaming her for it.

Ya, they didn't even say, "Let her do it," they said, "let her do her," as in "you do you." But it was a clumsy usage of the phrase.
