No. We're doing our best to teach our son independence and the responsibility that comes with it. That takes trust on our part, which would be severely undermined by such a device.
I also think it's the kind of device that subtley fosters paranoia and fear in the same way as heavy-duty home security systems.
I can only imagine an older child would resent it.
