Redditor Refuses To Share Her Live Location With Her Mother-In-Law Despite Her Husband Pressuring Her To

by Maryjane

Some couples divulge everything, including their closest friends' secrets and toothbrushes. So why is it hard to share their location, though? If you do, then it is a brand-new degree of closeness.

Sharing where you are is generally referred to as "location sharing." This phrase has begun to refer to location-sharing apps in recent times specifically.

You can use these apps to use real-time maps to locate your family members. Yes, it can locate where you are using the internet.

To guarantee your spouse arrives at work securely, you might want a location-sharing app. Or perhaps you need one to make sure your child doesn't stay up past their bedtime.

Now more than ever, third parties can easily find out where we are (and, potentially, what we're doing) thanks to smartphones, which monitor your every move, including your location. And occasionally, our spouses, significant others, and partners are those third persons.

But is it good to let them know where you are at all times? For the OP in today's story, sharing a location was a big deal.

And guess who wanted the OP to share their location at all times? The mother-in-law. According to the OP, they said she needs to know where the OP is to make sure she's safe.

They have argued about it a few times, and it’s just rubbing the OP the wrong way. Read the entire story for yourself below.

Regardless, sharing location for families has a lot of advantages. The OP and the partner are adults, and they do not need MIL to carry out any sort of protection.

Redditors were not sure how MIL having the OP's phone location could really be "protecting" them anyways. The OP was declared "not the AH" at the end of it all.
