Yes, I agree that all children need to be monitored with walkie-talkies. There are many styles for parents to choose from for their kids. However, all radios are not toys, regardless how they innocently appear. There is a time and place for them. I am stunned by the brazen language I hear from some kids on the CB, or radio. Radios are not toys. They are important devices. It may be kids use radios or walkies when parents aren't around, thinking they won't get caught. I enjoy all radios, and support their use by adults. I'm a new GMRS Radio user, and share my brother's Callsign. I use my HH Midland X-TRA TALK he gave me as a gift. This little radio allows us to talk to each other and we get clearly up to 6 miles between us. I am surprised because I live in a mountainous area. I am now hoping to get involved with Ham Radio. I wish the best for everyone and to fully enjoy their radio use. Peace and hugs to all.
