My parents mostly know where I am at any given time, but already many years, when I go out with my friends come over my small town. I'm not saying where I'm going. Usually I go back home at 22. In another case, calling to inform them where I'm and ask if I can come back later
I would not agree that my parents installed a GPS, because we have telephone contact. So I do not need the GPS. Besides, they have to trust me and are not interested in this type of control.

I think my contact wih parents is really good and they almost always know what I'm doing in certain moment. I usually call them (if I can't tell them personally) where I'm going now. If my parents bought me a GPS jacket I would rather won't wear it. Why? Because in my opinion, that would mean they don't trust me and I would feel pretty sad and disappointed about it.

If you ask me if my parents usually know what I'm doing, I answer "of course". We've got very good contact. I trust them and I know that I can always tell them everything. If I wanted to be somewhere longer, then I always ask them about the sentence and they often say "yes you can" (Just ask because they hate when I'm not asking them)
When my parents would give me a GPS jacket, I wouldn't take this. I think I would feel very uncomfortable. I never lie and I never do anything that is illegal for normal teenager so they haven't a reason to not trust me

I think that my contact with Mom is so good that she knows what I do all day, whether at the moment. We communicate by phone and we talk a lot at home. If Mom bought me a jacket with a GPS, I think I wouldn't need to wear it and I think that even Mom didn't fall into this idea because there is no problem with me.I believe that such a method is for parents who have problems with their still children, unless their safety is agree with this.

I haven't got any problems with communicating wih my parents,so they always know what I'm doing. We're just like close friends ,so they can totally trust me. If I could not speak to them personally (like face to face), I always leave a message ,where I am and what time they should expect me. If my parents bought me a GPS jacket I wouldn't wear it. I think that way ,because for me, a daughter who has brilliant contact with parents ,it would be really disappointing, uncomfortable and for sure, really,really sad. But personally I think that my parents would never buy me a GPS jacket.

Often I inform parents what I do. But I can't always know what the other person is doing. It is annoying and violate our privacy. Everyone should decide for himself about his life. Parents worried about us but they should undrstand that. I never dressed in a GPS jacket. I think it's an exaggeration. I understand the concerns of all parents but I think they should trust their own children.

I think my relationship with my parents is good and my parents don't need to buy any GPS jacket. I believe these things cause the relationship problems because there is no trust between the parents and a child and on top of this I think this is a waste of money. My parents can call me any time and ask me where I am. And I believe I'm safe in my town and only parents who don't trust their children will make them wear GPS jacket.

Yes, they usually know what I'm doing. My parents know what i'm doing,because I know that they were worried about me and wants them to be calm about me. I wouldn't wear it. In my opinion that parents should trust me and give me some freedom. I would feel like a prisoner and I would be very sad that parents do not trust me.

I am my sister and parents are family so I do not think jacket with a GPS, it was a good idea. We are a family and we have to trust.In Polish law even children have a right to privacy. This jacket is very expensive and the child will feel like a prisoner. Parents can always call me and ask where I am, or something does not need what I do.

I think that contact with parents I have very good that they have confidence in me that nothing bad would happen. I inform them if I go out of the house every now, and then wrote them a message where I am so all the time we have contact. If you buy the GPS jacket that would have given money unnecessarily.

Mostly my parents know where am i because when i'm outside i'm calling them or something. In my opinion jacket with GPS is not a big deal, i think my parents trust me and probably always know where am i so i don't even need stuff like this.

I think my relations with my parents are really good, because we’re loving family and my parents trust me. They love me and understand.
I guess jacket with GPS it’s not good idea, because my parents trust me and they always know where I am. When I go out I always have mobile phone so if they want they can call me and ask where am I.

I always tell my parents what i'm doing, beacuse it's safer for me and they don't have to worry about me when i'm not at home. If i'm changing plans, i'm just texting them. In my opinion the GPS jacket is not such a good idea. My mind is calmer when my parents knows about my plans but 24/7 control is not best idea for me. It's more annoying than functional.

My parents usually know what I doing. When I want go out with my friend, I must say my mum or my dad: where go, with who and when come back. When I go out in the late evening my dad calls to me from time to time.
While I' m imagining that my parents buy to me GPS jacket I' m feeling anger . I don' t wear GPS jacket. It is very stupid idea. I think that my parents have confidence to me.
