My son is 8 years old. I dropped my son aff to the bus one morning, come that afternoon I sat at the bus stop for 30 minutes before texting the bus driver asking if everything is ok?
She replied that they are fine and had already passed and my son was not on her bus.
I burst into tears, called the school, called my partner thinking the worse and all I could do was sit there with my 3 little ones crying coz there was no way of contacting my 8 year old making sure he was ok and to STAY on that bus until it comes back home. My son caught the wrong bus 50 minutes away ????
If I had one of these I could of called and made sure he was ok and to tell him not to stress and he was safe so he didn’t have to be scared any more and he was coming back home ????????

Today at the park my granddaughter was playing and a large birthday party arrived. I couldn’t see her and was concerned. It took me nearly ten minutes to find her and she was trying to find me too.

When he was at his first school camp and was trying not to be anxious. A quick phone call would have been really comforting.

Gosh the day my eldest decided to throw her banana peel in the bin, but didn’t use the one in the shop, and took herself outside to find the bin, scariest day not knowing where she was!

When my daughter joined a netball game and had to compete to a different school yet forgot to bring her epipen for her peanut allergy.

When my son park with my mum and her phone was flat so I couldn’t contact them to ask when they were coming home for dinner

that was many years ago my kids are all grown up and have kids of their own, I’m entering for them ( grandkids) I made my kids tell me were they were going and they had to call me if they where going any where else, no mobiles then, at least not for us my grandson is 6

When they have been at a birthday party where you drop them off and leave them there. At least if they had a Spacetalk Adventurer, they could let me know when they want to be picked up.

To be honest I had plenty of freak incidents whereby 2 of my kids with special needs either went missing due to absconding or escaped. Both of them have little or no danger awareness.

It would be great to have one of these watches, my daughter really would like one, specially because of the feature to be able to call me when needed. I think it would be really useful for example at school pick up times when we’re running a bit late or misunderstood the pick up up location. Then instead of worrying and looking for each other we could just call each other. I think it’s a very practical watch for kids to have.

When he needed to be let into the house as the keys were lost, had ro wait until I got back from work!

When I was super busy buying birthday presents after lockdown and we got stuck in traffic on the way to after school pick up the watch would’ve been handy to say hang out at the office as we’re ten mins away. Instead we called the school who had to put an announcement over the speakers and lucky enough she heard the message to go to the school office.

They were late coming back to school from an excursion and I didn’t know where they were or when they’d be home. Had to rely on the school facebook page for information

when their dad took the twins from daycare without signing them out….time stopped til he finally charged up his phone, saw 12 missed calls, 20 msgs, and rang me. Frantic.

when i was running late to pick them up from school
