“Yesterday [Wednesday], my son’s phone tracking went off and I went into massive panic mode because he was late home and I didn’t know where he was,” she said.<\/p>\n
“I need to know where he is all the time.”<\/p>\n
She added the response from her children’s school was “amazing” after she informed them of the post.<\/p>\n
The poster circulated widely on TikTok, Facebook and Instagram, but it is not clear who is responsible for posting it.<\/p>\n
Michael Stratton, a Reform UK councillor and cabinet member for children, families and education at West Northamptonshire Council, said the post was “incredibly irresponsible and wholly unacceptable”.<\/p>\n
“I would urge parents and carers to be aware of what their children may be encountering online and to talk openly with them about making safe choices and avoiding harmful peer pressure,” he said.<\/p>\n
The force said officers had been visiting schools to speak to students and carrying out “proactive patrols around schools and areas where disorder could occur”.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"“Yesterday [Wednesday], my son’s phone tracking went off and I went into massive panic mode because he was…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":448473,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[59,57,58,50,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-448472","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-united-kingdom","tag-gb","tag-great-britain","tag-greatbritain","tag-news","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/448472","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=448472"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/448472\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/448473"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=448472"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=448472"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=448472"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
