Taunton parents...Thank you for your kind comments. Taunton parents did very well in standing up for their children's rights and informing the school board fully about how biometrics are used in schools.<BR/><BR/>Illinios at least have laws in place for parental consent, but proper, non bias information should be given. Parents and students should have time to research this technology used in a school setting to enable that an 'informed' consent is made.<BR/><BR/>Glad this site is of help really - there was very little information out there when I started this last year, so with this blog and the Leave Them Kids Alone site, I think we have it fairly well covered.Pippa Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12248669312548711313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-35796774.post-51527620962587262272007-05-05T05:52:00.000+00:002007-05-05T05:52:00.000+00:00Educational Biometric Technology-interesting. I be...Educational Biometric Technology-interesting. I believe this is the company that the school in Earlville Illinois used. Congrats- to the parents in Taunton . They have done their research & became involved in the fight to protect their childrens rights. Illinois will catch up, especially since Illinoians are finally beginning to hear about the school within their own state that has made the mistake of denying children of their rights. Great Job & Keep Fighting! Our children need more parents like those who have started investigating and exposing these lies about the uses and supposed "complete safety" of this technology. Thanks to the Pippaking as well for putting the truth out there which at the very least gives parents factual information about the uses/abuses of biometrics that are out there. This way when parents hear that it could or is going to start getting used at their childrens school they will at least have enough information to speak & stand up for the right to protect their children and their individual information & rights.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
