[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My friend's family all track each other and are proud to speak about how helpful it is but she also flipped out when her own parents retired and wanted to be in the tracking group because she didnt want them to know what her family was doing every moment. It was interesting to see her "over my dead body" reaction when she is such a big proponent of tracking. [/quote]
Why is it weird? She doesn't want people outside of her household having their location. That sounds fine. No one is saying that everyone should share their location with everyone they come across. Your spouse and children are presumably closer to you than the starbucks barista or grandparents you see twice a year. [/quote]

But why would it matter if they had her location? They would only check if it they needed to because of arriving / leaving or for safety.[/quote]

DP: Maybe you would be fine with that, maybe not, becasue it depends on the relationship, obviously, as has been pointed out often on the thread. There are some people who you would not want to give location access to if they were using it for purposes that concern you, like an OCD spouse, manipulativley controling boyfriend, or mother with severe FOMO who might just show up if she thinks you are at a party she "should have been" invited to.

DH and I want the other to know where we are. We find it comforting and useful. I can't think of any scenario where I wouldn't want him to know where I was (unless he was arriving at a surpise party). But that certainly wouldn't apply ot everyone I know or am related to.[/quote]
