An Ohio Chick-fil-A has sparked outrage after sharing a controversial rule regarding teenage customers just before the start of the school year.
The location of the popular chicken chain in Kettering, Ohio posted a statement about its divisive ‘Teen Chaperone Policy’ on Facebook on Wednesday.
‘With school starting, we wanted to make sure that everyone is aware of our Teen Chaperone Policy,’ the business wrote.
‘We are grateful for your support and want to make sure Chick-fil-A Kettering is a safe and enjoyable place for everyone!’
According to the notice, customers who are 17 years old or younger must be accompanied by someone over 21 years old to dine in at the restaurant.
‘Unaccompanied minors may be asked to leave,’ the message reads.
This post triggered an uproar from Chick-fil-A fans who found this policy unnecessary and unfair to well-behaved minors.
‘Pretty sad that the good kids are getting punished,’ one woman commented.
For $10 a head, I can be a professional adult chaperon.
