Goal Met!
On September 9th, you will have to be 18+ to go to the Holyoke Mall on Fridays and Saturdays, or you will have to have a parent with you, when you go to the mall.

The mall is supposed to be a place where you can meet up with friends and possibly buy something. Just because someone is under the age of 18 does not mean they should not be allowed to get together with their friends and shop.

I understand that some teenagers might cause trouble, but I am sure everyone at some point in their childhood has. So I believe that the Holyoke Mall should remain for everyone of every age.

I support this petition. This is stupid! Can't teens have a life? They hang out with their friends at the mall. Whats next? Not letting us go for walks without a parent? Maybe if the kids were under the age of 12, but 18, thats too much.

I think this is a great rule! It's keeping the kids out and bringing back shoppers who are actually going to spend money. The mall is not for loitering and hanging out it's for shopping!

This rule is rediculas! Just because a couple of kids cause just a little trouble here and there, Dosent mean that you should ban the entire age group/generation of kids

This is nothing more than age discrimination.

This is ludicrous. I'm not a big fan of punk kids that want to cause trouble but isn't that what security guards are paid to take care of.

I live in Agawam Ma. and i go to the mall all the time, and yeah i see some stupid kids who cause trouble but thats like once every 3 or 4 imes i go, yeah who cares still keep some of the security there, so if there are any kids there doing what they arent supposed to they can kick them out but dont punish every kid who is under 18 for what some group of like 4 kids is doing that is just completely outrageous and unfair to everyone. I am only 13 and i see that yeah kids my age do cause trouble but come on, we are kids and we hafta learn at some time what not to do so just keep security at the mall, and let every one in, and if there are anyone misbehaving then have security kick em out its not hard to do.

We are from Vermont;we went to the Holyoke Mall to go Chistmas shopping. My daughter who is nineteen and a sophmore in college was walking with her cousin who is twelve. They were stopped by a security guard. She was very rude to them, got in my daughter's face,literally, and asked if she knew what the policy was in the mall? Of course she said no. I mean how would anyone know about a policy like this one? It's outrageous!!!!!! My daughter was held there, (remember she is 19,and legal age in this country is 18) until my sister, who is the mother of my daughter's cousin, and I got there.Although my sister asked for an explanation of the policy, she received only a description of it--not the REASON why the policy is in place. I agree with the petition but would also like to know why such a policy is in place. Maybe I should contact the ACLU about this. I wonder if the policy can be upheld on mall property because it is private?

i think this is not right because i am 17 years old and i know when i was younger i use to have some fun but still this "18+ only in mall" should not be liable to all teens atleast because thats is the main profit that the mall makes the mall has many children coming to the mall and asking for clothes and many other things and i know that there are many of them because i use to go to the mall many times a week but now i dont go because of the harrasment from the security gaurds there i understand that i am a under age adult but still that is not right for cops to think that i am a thief i wear baggy clothes but i go to GED and i work for youthbuild Nueva esperanza located at main street of holyoke massachusetts i have done many community service projects and planning on going to college i didnt do all this just to go to the mall and be followed by cops and i do not agree with that i also have a poem i would like to enter wich adds to this topic wich if any body would like to read it e-mail me at nictorius2003@Yahoo.com i will introduce every one to what i think is wrong and right
