The government officials aren’t the only ones the can track its citizens.  With GPS enabled cell-phones parents are able to track the location of their children. Several cell phone companies now offer tracking of a child cell phone.

Using the internet parents can log-on at find the location of their child.  Some of these new electonic  “big Brothers”  send parents a message when the cell phone is in a certain location.

NOTE: Of course these gadgets do not substitute for regular parental attention.  All new technology should be used in conjuction with parental involment(My two cents).
