They need to add a feature for predicting levels of violence in the park to the park app.

"It is incredibly disappointing that our community is disrupted at public events throughout the region by groups of underaged youth. Just like other venues in the area, we are committed to keeping this type of trouble outside our park and off our property," Six Flags Over Georgia said in a statement.

From what I can tell they don't have a chaperone policy?

As opposed to the adult youth? Or the underaged adults?

They have already had problems....that's why they have the youth supervision policy at most their parks. This isn't just a Six Flags issue, it's a society issue. Pretty much every mall, entertainment venue, theme park, major city and tourist attraction have been dealing with things like this. The only thing that seems to prevent it is by not allowing large groups of unsupervised teenagers, but sometimes that is easier said then done.


Unsupervised groups of adults can cause their own set of problems.
