The incentive might be as simple as not being bothered by a phonecall from a parent.
I'm sure most kids would be delighted to wear a brick if it reduced the stupid "where are you?" phonecalls by 90%.
Or even a small bacpack if it had a satiety sensor and cut out "have you eaten?" phonecalls as well.

I'm not sure what's worse: enforcing that outright or having them see that level of invasion of privacy as normalized
