So apparently there is a mom that got arrested becuz her 10 year old went to the grocery store a half mile from their house while she took her older son to a practice for a sport .
Anyways the state said they would drop the charges if she got her 10 year old a phone (he did not have one) and track his location with an app .
She said she is not going to comply
The next day state sent CPS and took her to jail . Could be sentenced to 1 year .
Very dystopian to think in the not so distant future that as a parent it could be ILLEGAL for your child to NOT have a smartphone and ALSO track your child through an app .
LMAO. At 10 I was riding my bike all over town. I lived 5 miles outside of town. Shit is crazy.
Just get home by dark was the rule! Life was a bike ride radius in all directions : )
This about the stupidest thing I have ever seen....
i would laugh at this department.

That is totally fucked. Good on her for sticking to her guns.
