>Why do parents track their children?

Two reasons come to mind:

- parents spend a ridiculous amount of time worrying over ever-yet-more unlikely ways that their children will be maimed or murdered that very day

- it's not unknown for kids to have relatively poor reasoning and decision-making skills

Agreed. And one way to get better at decision making (if you're a kid) is having the opportunity to try and fail at it. So this isn't a good reason to track your kids after all, IMHO.
