Child Gps Tracking Devices
McCanns: is GPS tracking of children a good idea ?
We read that with the anxiety caused by Madeleine McCanns disapearance ‘around 59 per cent of parents surveyed said that they would be keen on some sort of tracking device attached to their children’s uniforms’.
Do you think GPS tracking of children is a good idea ?

Oh no, that’s taking it too far. If you put a tracking device on a child it would give out the message to children that all adults can’t be trusted and instead of making them aware of the dangers would make them paranoid and frightened of all grown ups. Children have always gone missing unfortunately but people have become even more aware of it because of the enormous amount of publicity about the McCann child. I would be worried relying on any device like this as it could give the child and the parents a false sense of security as any device can fail as nothing is 100% safe these days.
The best we can do for our children is to educate them about the possible dangers out there and make sure they’re never left unattended when they’re too young to be left alone, under any circumstances!
