Would You "Track" Your Kid with a GPS Device?
Lightning GPS introduced a small tracking device on Wednesday called the Spark Nano. The device is actually about the size of a 9-Volt battery--you know, the big one that's used in a smoke detector.
Its size means you can easily install the Spark Nano on the object that needs tracking; you can clip it on a person's belt or put it inside your kids' backpack to keep tab of their whereabouts. The Spark Nano also features a panic button that the wearer can use to alert people if he or she is in danger. The alert would show exactly where the person wearing the tracking device was located.
For people at home, the Spark Nano can be tracked in real time via a Web site, either with a computer or via a smartphone. It can also be set to periodically send e-mails and text messages indicating the location of the tracked object.
The Spark Nano has a built-in rechargeable battery that can power the device for five continuous days with a full charge. It sports "Safety Zone" Technology that alerts you when the tracked object arrives at a target or exits a predefined area.
The new GPS tracking device is available now and costs $299.95. It also requires a service plan that starts at another $45 a month.

This is a bit freaky...as a mom of a an autistic boy, who wonders out of the house, I can see where this might be useful and if used properly a great thing for some of us...at the same time, I can also see where at some point companies can ask you use this to track you, courts can ask ex-husbands/ex-wives to use this to track their whereabouts, etc...so it becomes a bit freaky...but for some of our kids, worth the peace of mind...

Oh hell yes. More now than ever and my kids are 18 and 19. If I could track my 27 year old step son, I would do that too. After all, he's responsible for my granddaughters well being.

Good day! Yes, because I do care about their safety. I registered them to SafeKidZone. Not only can this mobile security application allow me to keep track of their location but it is also very useful during emergency situations since it has a panic button that allows my kids to summon for help and ask for an immediate response from friends, family and from the nearest 911 in our area. The thing here is not because we don’t trust our kids but this is about them being able to ask for help and be located right away whenever emergency arises. This is the protection I provide to my kids http://safekidzone.com/
