In the past, I used to slip an old I-Phone inside my golf cart when my mother-in-law traveled by herself and used the location finder app to at least track the golf cart when she traveled solo.

My wife believes this is an invasion of privacy and I believe its a safety issue.
Any suggestion to convince my wife ?
If you are responsible for someone’s safety or well-being, use every and any tool you have to fulfill your responsibility. If she is your guest and would look to you for assistance should she get lost, of course you should track her, and she should be glad you care enough to do so.
