In Norway there's a hospital that's going to start using anti-theft alarms on newborns. They've had problems with babies being stolen and problems with babies going home with the wrong Mommy and Daddy.
I have a few friends who are convinced that the latter happened to them when they were kids. I don't know how many times I've heard friends say, "They can't possibly be MY parents!"
Back to the main story, anti-theft alarms on babies in Norway. I think it's a good idea, but I just hope the alarms aren't too sensitive. I wonder if the alarms sound like your typical car alarm. That's probably a bad idea because it will obviously cause trama for the child.
I think the alarm tones should be a variety of things including:
Elmo saying "Hey! This kid is being lifted. Hey! This kid is being turned into a Take-Me Elmo as opposed to a Tickle-Me Elmo!"
Barney singing "I love you. You love me. Attention nurses! Some stranger is trying to create a brand new family!"
Finally Carmen San Diego could shout: "Where in the World am I? Where in the world is this creep taking your kid!"
