Young kids will no longer be allowed to wander around Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson unsupervised.

There's a new chaperone policy going into effect later this week holding parents responsible for the behavior of their children.

Kids 15 years and younger will soon have to be accompanied by an adult at least 21 years old to be allowed inside the park and allowed to stay inside the park.

The move comes as a proactive step to help ensure safety, according to the website.

In response to the increasing incidents of unruly and inappropriate behavior across our industry and at other major entertainment venues, we are taking proactive steps to ensure a safe and enjoyable environment for everyone.

New Chaperone Policy at Six Flags Great Adventure in Jackson, NJ

The new policy starts this Saturday, September 7th.

The website goes on to say,

We believe these changes will help ensure that Six Flags Great Adventure continues to have a positive atmosphere where generations of families and friends can gather for a day of safe fun and good food. Millions of guests have counted on us for exactly that, and we will continue to deliver on that promise for generations to come.

I'm a huge fan of Great Adventure and have been a season ticket holder for many years.

This is always such a fun and exciting time of year to be at the park!

There are so many great upcoming events.
