A few years ago there was a big 'rigamaroll' involving the possible fingerprinting of homeless in Jacksonville, much of it involving the regular homeless bashers downtown. There is however a definate use for gps tracking amongst homeless families for safety reasons.
With having impressionable teens there's always the constant threat that one of the nice single males or females that tries to bond with families is really a perv, sexual predator, or some other form of malcontent. You can't keep the kids under lock and key...although it might be ideal sometimes.
Knowing where they've 'been' isn't as useful as where they are at the moment. GPS tracking through cell phones is more available through even pay per use services than ever before. Another option is purchasing watches with harness locks; that can't be removed; that give realtime locations and provide 'breadcrumb' tracking...being able to see where they've been after the fact.
