Businesses do have the right to refuse service as long as they don’t violate federal laws to do so. The federal civil rights act of 1964 prohibits discrimination based on race, religion, and national origin. The Americans with disabilities act prohibits discrimination based on disabilities. Businesses do have the right to refuse service based on age.

If you feel strongly about it have you thought of trying to do anything about it like calling a representative and voicing your concerns

Age is not a protected class until after 40. At least for employment. But, even the fair housing act allows 55+ communities with no kids.

So strip clubs can’t ban minors from attending?

A club or bar does this.

Usually to comply with their liquor license

A mall doesn't have to worry abt that

You do know that there are places in that very Mall with liquor licenses, right?

The Mall in Columbia will require chaperones for minors on weekends
