Malls across the US implement chaperone policies for minors.

Garden State Plaza Mall in New Jersey will require minors under 18 to be accompanied by a chaperone who is 21 or older on weekend nights in response to TikTok-fueled mayhem and unruly behavior. Police and security guards will check IDs at the entrance, and anyone who refuses will be asked to leave. The policy will begin on April 28 and will be in effect after 5 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays. Other malls in Maryland, Georgia, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania have also implemented similar policies.
