Teen bans on the rise: malls, theme parks, and even a Chick-fil-A are requiring chaperones to stop rowdy minors

• Shopping malls, theme parks, and a Chick-fil-A restaurant are starting to require chaperones for teenagers.
• The policies are in response to rowdy behavior and fighting, which often ends up being posted on TikTok.
• Curfews for teens are nothing new — they first popped up at malls in the 1980s and 1990s.

Malls, restaurants, and theme parks across the country are starting to put a new policy in place: no teens allowed with chaperones.
