[quote=Anonymous]Purpose and intent matters here. It isn't about trust to me, rather convenience and safety.

Everyone in our family tracks everyone else through find my phone, and they all know they can turn it off if they want. We aren't stalking each other or distrustful, but use it when needed for practical purposes and much prefer it to constantly calling and texting (esp. the kids).

When my college kid is traveling for the weekend with friends, we all feel better knowing we can find him if something goes wrong. When one of is stuck in traffic and late to pick up a kid, we can drive safely and not text because the kid can see exactly where we are. When my kid was abroad, we could take fun screen shots of his avatar on continents and in cities and in the middle of the ocean. When we travel without they kids, they can check on us if they worry, even if the time zone is inconvenient for a call. We like being able to time things without having to text and call and ask where are you and when will you be here? Just check the app.

I guess if you had trust issues, it could be a problem, but so far we are all OK with it. My kids probably check on me more than I check on them.[/quote]
