[QUOTE="meowbunny, post: 171227, member: 3626"] I was always under the impression that the ankle bracelets were set so that you could go a certain amount from the house so that you could do things like play with your child, do yard work, get something from the car, etc. It would seem awfully wrong if they didn't. It might be worth calling the P.O. (with Cory's knowledge) and finding out exactly how far from the house he can go. Dads need to play with their kids. Yards need work. Moms need things from cars and sheds in the like. I had a friend who was on an ankle. He was allowed to leave the house, not just the yard, so long as he called and got permission. He had to give an exact itinerary and time when he was returning. Obviously, he couldn't do "fun" things but he could go to the store, pick his son up from school, even go to school events in the evening. I also have worked with several kids on the ankle bracelet. Most of the POs were a little less accommodating -- mainly to try to keep them from having any free time to be with bad influences. Some were actually kept strictly in the house. I know of one PO who actually measured the house and gave the kid 5 feet out the door. Given that Cory is 21, has a child, is trying to be responsible, my guess would be that his PO will be somewhere in between these two, but I do think he would (or should) allow Cory to go outside. I am with BBK, it really does sound like he is taking this seriously and is really trying to do better. I hope he succeeds. House arrest is not easy. I'm glad he has Keyana to keep him occupied and busy enough to not scheme of ways to get around the bracelet (and I still think you should take some of the time he is positively stuck there to do something for yourself).
