While most parents want to be able to reach their children if necessary, we found that most don’t want their children to have a mobile phone until their teen years.

The increasing prevalence of children wandering has many parents very concerned. We have seen our fair share of stories about children with Autism innocently wandering from their homes. Most of these stories have had tragic endings. With more children with autism getting lost, Sen. Charles Schumer (NY) has proposed that the federal government provide funding for tracking devices for Autistic children so they do not go missing. These proposed tracking devices can be worn as wristwatches, anklets or clipped onto belt loops or shoelaces. He also notes that a similar program is already in place for those suffering from Alzheimer's. In the next few years I believe we will see an influx of tracking devices designed specifically for the autism community. Until then we will have to make do with what is currently available.
