Location Tracking
If the idea of putting tracking devises into our children is an honest proposal than the world at large needs to seriously re consider parenting. As humans we never dtop growing and learning. Being a parent and not knowing where your children are is an experience that can be very humbling and a great deal can be learnt. And being a child and having the notion of freedom is also a very important part of life. Over protection of a child leads to anti-social behavior later on. Taking risks help humans learn and grow. Instead of congress spending money on tracking chip they should spend it on public courses for confused parents who need help raising their children. Like many other new technologies the cons out weigh the pros. If the tracking devises got into the hands of the wrong people it would be easy for a sexual preditor or cereal killer to find a child. The government can't be trusted with these technologies because no one should be trusted with these technologies. The elderly could simply have chips in their shoes. Tracking a humane being is inhumane. The goal may be to protect and preserve life but in the end these technologies take away the very characteristics that make us human.

I agree. Also,If inserting a tracking chip into a young child became mandatory, It would be taking away the child's freedom to choose if they want to be tracked or not.
