We attach GPS tracking devices to our cars, our phones, and even our pets, so why not our children – right? A daycare in Sweden is conducting an experiment that places GPS tracking devices on kids while they are outside of the confines of the nursery walls. If a child is abducted or strays, transmitters attached to the devices will report to a synced mobile phone, signaling something could be amiss. A seemingly harmless safety measure, some think it is going to far – what do you think? Share your thoughts with us ahead.
As long as it remains a parental OPTION, and never a MANDATE, then it is up to the parent. But, computer security being what it is, people if ill-intent could use those same GPS devices to find someone’s kid.
