 Should 16 and 17 year olds who work at the mall be excluded from it? I say yes. Sounds like a common sense thing. And when I say excluded from, of course, they excluded from it when they're working. But when they get off, a couple of people from work are hanging out. I think they should be excluded. The reason why is if their behavior is is such that you have to actually say something to them or discipline them, then they shouldn't even be working there any longer. So you could deal with it that way.
