Wayne Stayskal is a political cartoonist for Tribune Media Services in Tampa Florida. His style is to use a headline as a caption and then draw a cartoon based on that headline. The story this cartoon was based on ran is here. Truth be told, there are a growing number of technologies available to track children's locations and activities. One needn't go all the way to Wales to get them. One of may favorite was in the pre-commercial-GPS days when some parents in Phoenix pooled resources to get an 800 number and bumper stickers for the family cars. That way if their teens were driving unsafely they could get a call from concerned drivers about the teens' poor driving habits. The teens were pissed off about the program until it was implemented and the calls coming in were more often when the parents were driving, not the kids. The parents quietly took off the bumper stickers and cancelled the 800 number.
