Tech Keeps Tabs on School Kids
by Decius at 8:44 pm EDT, Aug 26, 2002

"Before little Suzy skips out the door swinging her Powerpuff Girls lunchbox, her parents can lock a Wherify GPS-enabled bracelet on her wrist that works like a personal LoJack, pinpointing her exact location as she walks to class. If she's tardy, her parents can jump on the Internet and check her coordinates using aerial or street maps. And if she runs into a strange man asking for help finding a lost kitty, she can press two buttons on the bulky device to dial 911. The bracelet also notifies the cops if someone tries to forcefully remove it. "

The things your television is telling you about the health and wellfare of your children are more important then the things your child is telling you about her need for independence or the things you might tell your child about taking care of herself on the street. This is because children are not people, they are things, and their welfare is more important then their feelings.
