Have tried one of those products that advertise to do just that… Pointless I must say!

The directions come all wrong!

Well, please define parenting… Is it confining your child to live in home? Restrict them to play in parks? Restrict them of making new friends?

I really don't believe that's the best way of parenting our children…. Yes it's true we live in a dangerous world but it's also true that our kids deserve to learn from the world, run freely, fall and get up!

I see Kiddo as a great help there… I use mine quite often and at least I don't get frustated looking around and not finding my kid!! That's bad parenting!

Would be more helpful with a directional finder.

I’m really too paranoid to even need (or trust) one of these – my eyes are rarely off my kid in public anyway. It could break; your kid remove their end (or put it on the luggage belt – heh).

What seems odd to me is that the alarm sounds on the adult side. If one’s kid is wandering off in an airport or mall with hundreds of people around, wouldn’t you want *him* to be the one with the noisy beacon?

How does being waterproof guarantee noninterference with the avionics?

And 26 feet is a long way. Is it really possible for your kid to go that far on a plane?

Or, you know…. you could actually watch your kids without spending any money.

I have to agree Skeptik. My parents somehow managed to keep track of my whereabouts when I was younger. And this device basically means I have to listen to both the kids that are running around screaming and the alarm that the parents are ignoring.

I like the fact it’s waterproof. So no alarm when you kid is lying at the bottom of a pool 4 metres away
