Kennywood, a 128-year-old amusement park in Pennsylvania, has tightened its summer chaperon policy, requiring guests 15 and under to be accompanied by a supervising adult from June 12 to Sept. 7. The change follows violent teen-related incidents at other parks, including Six Flags St. Louis and Hersheypark, which involved large-scale brawls and police interventions.

Opening day at Six Flags St. Louis ended in chaos due to a brawl involving up to 100 people, mostly juveniles, leading to an early park closure. Police dispersed the crowd without injuries or property damage. The park was recently sold to Enchanted Parks, prompting concerns about setting a tone for the new ownership.
