why not use the cellular network for

that sends a message to the police, school personel,
parents, etc., all giving the time and location, and
pointing to the home site or a data site with pictures
of the kid, etc., all encripted and available only to
specific people who you want to know. Combined with
the new video phones out there, this would give
serious pause to any would-be molestors.
### You might want to check out the Wherify product - which has the
additional benefit of being locked onto the child's wrist, so it cannot be
discarded by the kidnapper.
