[quote=Anonymous]I would not let her go alone at that age. But I would take her and a friend and stay. I would probably walk with them for awhile and then split up, giving them specific instructions as to where to meet, them staying together (I tell my dd that when one goes to the bathroom, they both go to the bathroom.) And have she and the friend know that if I call or text they better respond. In a mall that size, I would do it only during the day. I've been to malls around here that as an adult, I am uncomfortable being there after 7 on a Saturday night. There's just too many people, too much going on, too many teens out of control, etc. Is she familiar with the mall? If not, I'd do a smaller mall first and then go as a family to MOA and get used to it -- like what stores are where, where the safer bathrooms are, food locations, etc. so that everyone feels comfortable. My dd actually likes me going with them, because I have money and she doesn't.[/quote]
