Why an ankle bracelet and not a dog collar?

Under the guise of “ it’s all for the childrens benefit” , it is imprisonment and should be taken to court and fought tooth and nail.

WTF are the parents in this ? ( I didnt read whole article yet )...... but wow,I’d pull my kids out of school so fast the school admins’ friggin commie heads would spin and pop off.
‘cept my oldest has already graduated and my other one hasnt even started school yet.

The responsibility of the public school system is to educate your child so that they can read, write and do math sufficiently to function as an adult in society. Not to gather data on them for other purposes. Anybody who lets their kid wear that bracelet is an idiot.

We need to raise a huge stink about this now, before other school districts get similar ideas.

I hope that Freepers with children in that school district remove them immediately.

Another article says the parents will have to give permission “mainly because of the responsibillity involved.”

Oh, really?

Read the comments at the end of the article. They are scathing.

It sounds like a way to accustom them to constant monitoring. If they get used to this as children, there is no telling what they will be willing to submit to as adults.

They should all take their kids bracelets, go to Home Depot, and put them on the paint mixers for a while, or stick them on the dog’s collar for the weekend.

Sorry...thought this was one of those threads where each person gets to contribute to the story... ;^)

I bet not one of the kids wearing these bracelets can name the Vice President, Speaker of the House, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court or the capitol of the state they live in and it is because the schools spend so much time on nonsense like this. I have decided to teach my kids about American history and our founding because they surely aren’t getting it in school.

Spend two more hours a day and you can homeschool in all the relevant subjects.

I would put it on one of my dogs & then take them for a long walk.

This is a direct attack on the 4th Amendment, IMO.
