A new GPS
tracker model has been presented as the perfect solution for parents concerned
about the exact and immediate location of their children with iPhone
locator. This small device that the child can carry in the pocket, on
the belt or in the backpack allows you to locate it instantly and updated from
anywhere, wherever you are (including other countries). Using GPS to control is
not something new, but the appeal of this model is the new features. Parents
can create a virtual perimeter around the family home or school so that every
time the child enters or leaves these areas, a warning is sent to the mobile.
It is also possible to put a speed alert so that if the child exceeds the
established limit (thought in case of riding in vehicles), the parent's phone
immediately sends a signal.
These
updates, accompanied by a reduction in the price of the device, have enabled
thousands of European parents to start monitoring their children. However,
experts warn of the consequences that excessive monitoring can have on the
development, privacy and autonomy of children.
At the
time when a child with kids
bat bag is aware that he is carrying a surveillance device - if the
child is very small may not know the meaning of GPS - two effects can occur.
"The first is rejection: the child may not want to take him or her to be
controlled, as a way to claim personal autonomy, the second is to delay the necessary
formation of the child's personal judgment.
