I'm not sure in other countries but in Australia, I have never seen children / teenagers ever actually "hanging out" at the mall.
I don't personally have any of my own but I haven't seen any of my friends children there either. Most likely are either the skate park ( where teenagers who don't skate seem to hang out as well) or the youth centre which is basically a glorified arcade with councillors etc and the library which is less of a library and more of a sitting place with games, movies etc.
Again, this is simple anecdote and in Australia so may not apply to the rest of the world.
- fratlas 10y agoI'm from rural australia and I definitely remember kids hanging out at local shopping centers. I visited home recently and they still do, especially in summer (40+ degrees, who can blame them).
- sanswork 10y agoWestfield Bondi Junction has a lot of kids hanging around after school finishes.
- flukus 10y agoThey did and still do in Australia. It may depend on the area though, inner city Melbourne for instance isn't as shopping center centric as the rest of Australia.
