As a teenager, my parents constantly hounded me about where I was going, and when I would return. I didn't have a cellphone, so communication was limited. Flash forward ten years and although many teenagers have cell phones now, it's still annoying for kids and teens to constantly communicate with parents and worrisome for parents to not know of their children's whereabouts. A new app will soon launch to help solve this problem. I'mOK, which is in private beta, is a private mobile application designed to reward kids for staying connected to their parents. By sharing their location, taking pictures, tagging friends, and telling parents what's up, kids earn points that can be exchanged for things parents have agreed to, like allowance or special privileges. The more kids share, the more points they get.
