you seen the duracell commercial' while this might help in some cases i personally i think this will make bad parents with too much money another reason to not make sure where their kids are when they can look at the locator' its not like they might lose a shoe or take off a jacket'

I'm for doing anything you can do to further protect a child. As I've stated before the chances of a child being abducted by a stranger is slim, however if enough people have it someone will benefit. I also stated that parents need to teach their kids how to prevent something happening in the first place and what to do if it does.

I think it's sad that it's come to this. That we have to use tracking devices in kids to keep them around. For little children, imo, the parents should stay with them at all times. For older children, they should be allowed a bit of independence, but, as bassman21 mentioned, "parents need to teach their kids how to prevent something happening in the first place and what to do if it does." Most children should know the basics, like not talking to strangers and not walking off with strangers. I know this was taught through schools, children's programming, and by my parents when I was a child, so I'm certain they'd still teach it now.
