There were a group of kindergarten kids that had been dropped off in front of a school that has been closed for a couple of years. Well obviously even with your system, this would have still occurred. The buss driver would have still dropped the kids off there, because thats where he thought he was told to, perhaps even WAS told to. The people running the schools, (and driving the busses), are not well known for prudence, and rational decision making. Often because to many parents are coming to them with cockamamy schemes they've managed to successfully argue for. I'm a no half measures kind of guy, if kids really need ID's all that badly, why not just have a GPS chip installed in their foreheads with all extra data a government employee (or thief, but thats redundant) might want. Then you would ALWAYS know where they're at, Faraday cage, and computer glitches aside. If you have never had children, you can't possibly understand the fear that a parent or grandparent experiences from not knowing where your child is. You don't have to be "a parent..." I've lost site of children in my care, it's scary, I know. This whole "it's for the safety of kids" thing is destroying opportunity to build character in the very children the slogan claims to be helping. Why not just tie them to a fence post like a dog? I see nowhere in the state or federal charters, where the government can, or ought, be compelled to relive the suffering of an individuals uncomfortable feelings, by means of expensive and fallible technology. The school system could probably get 10 more teachers for a year or few, for the same price as this system you propose. 4 teachers permanently, because any such system would of course need to be monitored by a newly created administrator, making $150,000+ a year.
