Speaker 1 (00:00):
It's Mojoe in the Morning. Am I the a hole
(00:02):
on the Mojo in the Morning show? And a chance
for you to get a little bit of advice. Here's
the one that came into us this morning.
Speaker 2 (00:09):
My son doesn't like that I track him on Life
three sixty, and my an a hole for doing that.
Speaker 1 (00:16):
Okay, well, let's find out how how old is your son? Christine? Christine?
Speaker 3 (00:24):
Yes, how old is your How old is your son
that you're you got on Life three sixty?
Speaker 2 (00:28):
Oh he's twenty six?
Speaker 1 (00:32):
Okay, all right, Well, well he's a little older than
most you know moms that go on Life three sixty
and do Life three sixty.
Speaker 3 (00:40):
But does he not like that you're tracking him on
Life three sixty? Oh? He hates it.
Speaker 4 (00:45):
He hates it a lot.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
You know, Mom, I'm too old for this.
Speaker 4 (00:48):
Stop it.
Speaker 2 (00:49):
It's not like I'm going to show up anywhere, you know,
it's just this crazy time we little bit.
Speaker 4 (00:53):
I don't want to know where you is.
Speaker 5 (00:54):
So that's my question is are you commenting on his
whereabouts and where he is at what time and stuff
like that, or he's just aware that you know where
he is at all times.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
He's aware that I'm aware where he is at all times.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
You don't bug him about it, no, but.
Speaker 4 (01:12):
You know he's somewhere.
Speaker 3 (01:13):
You know he knows.
Speaker 2 (01:14):
I'm going to be thinking why did he go there?
Speaker 4 (01:17):
You know?
Speaker 6 (01:17):
How long have you been tracking him?
Speaker 4 (01:21):
For a long time?
Speaker 1 (01:23):
Got so since since he got a phone, you've been
watching him, and so you just keep that going.
Speaker 2 (01:29):
Yeah, since he was a teenager.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
I just kept it going. So why did this come up?
Speaker 7 (01:35):
Like?
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Why did you even think of I'm going to call
Mojo in the morning for am I the a hole
and see if they think I'm an a hole? Is
there an argument about you still tracking him at twenty
six years old?
Speaker 8 (01:46):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (01:46):
Well he thinks, you know, because I commented like how
was the movie? And he goes, Okay, you know you
don't have to track me all the time. I'm old
enough now to take care of myself.
Speaker 1 (01:58):
Can I say this to you? Then don't do that? Like,
I think that it's fine that you're tracking him. As
a matter of fact, I'm almost positive that my wife
tracks all of our boys, and I've got a son
that's exactly your son's age. But I also sit there
and I think you can't say, hey.
Speaker 3 (02:16):
Where are you? Or or I know you're there, or
any that.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
Stuff like, I think you got to use that as
in case of an emergency, you just can't do what
you're doing where you're making comments on the whole thing.
Speaker 3 (02:28):
Agreed.
Speaker 9 (02:29):
Yeah, I'll always worry that's is twenty six too old
to be tracking your kid eight four four Mojoe Live
eight four four sixty six five sixty five four eight keV,
you're a grown ass man.
Speaker 1 (02:42):
Would you give your mom your phone privileges to be
able to know where you are at all times?
Speaker 6 (02:47):
My initial reaction is no, with the same mind set
that her son has, like, you don't really need to know.
But I think it also depends on the type of
parent you have. Like if I know my mom is
like a type of parent that's going to freak out.
She wants to know where I am. It makes her
feel comfortable. I might give it to her just for
the sake, but if she about to be popping up
(03:07):
and texting me ask me where are you at?
Speaker 3 (03:09):
Why are you there? And then you got I.
Speaker 5 (03:11):
Think about was it Beyonca's dad that actually showed up
on a date.
Speaker 3 (03:14):
She was on?
Speaker 7 (03:15):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (03:15):
That was that was big? Remember that? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Al Chelsea tracks me or and sees where I am
and I can see where she's at. I feel like
that's cool, though. What's up Alice High?
Speaker 8 (03:29):
Hey, guys, So I think it's extra strange. I am
obsessed with my kids. They're still small, but I my
in laws have a life three sixty and they're constantly
in the family text saying like, hey, why aren't you home?
Speaker 4 (03:41):
Where are you?
Speaker 8 (03:42):
Why are you here? And I just feel like that's
way too much. I'm good with knowing where you're at
for safety, but I think it's over the top when
you have to say, like, hey, how was the movie?
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Whose idea was it to let your in laws track you?
Speaker 8 (03:56):
So I'm not in it?
Speaker 3 (03:57):
I refused.
Speaker 8 (03:57):
I said, no, I'm good. I'm thirty eight years old.
This that happened nine one one will get a hold
of you. I'm not all about that. It's like my
brother in law, sister in.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Law, what about your husband?
Speaker 8 (04:08):
No, he won't share location, but we don't like share
it with the whole family. Yeah, that's a lot.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
The family things interesting, the people that let their entire
family know where they are.
Speaker 3 (04:20):
What's up, Robin High?
Speaker 6 (04:22):
Hi?
Speaker 3 (04:22):
How are you good? What do you think am I
the a hole.
Speaker 7 (04:26):
I think she's a little mush. I tracked my daughter
at college. It's helped a lot because she travels for
sports and sometimes we have to like know exactly how
to get to a stadium, and with the Life through sixty,
we can do that, even though the directions that we
got might not be exact. So we've used it a
lot for that. But I don't I don't buger on it.
(04:46):
I just it's nice to know where she's at. You know,
she's eighteen years old or three hours away from home.
Speaker 3 (04:51):
Has there ever been a time I used it too?
Speaker 1 (04:54):
Has there ever been a time though, that you wanted
to actually call her and say where the hell are you?
Speaker 8 (04:58):
Oh?
Speaker 7 (04:58):
Totally like, why are you a the mall? You should
be studying one hundred percent?
Speaker 3 (05:02):
But I don't see.
Speaker 1 (05:03):
That's the problem is if you're using it to still
parent your kid by telling them to get their work done,
you're not giving them an opportunity to be an adult.
But if you're using it because your kids in a
bad area that they shouldn't be and you're like, what
the hell are you doing? Like you're seeing them away
and you're wondering if they're okay? I don't mean that
that's the wrong thing, although the mall could be the
(05:24):
bad area.
Speaker 3 (05:25):
What's up, Jen? How you doing?
Speaker 8 (05:27):
I am good?
Speaker 4 (05:29):
So I don't think she's an a hole at all.
My kids are in the military. They're nineteen and twenty,
and I still stop them all the time. I think
where she's going wrong is maybe how you present it,
because like if I see, like my darters in Hawaii,
she's at the mall and just be like, oh, Lily's
at the mall again, and does this laugh at me
like you know it, I think it probably approach it.
Speaker 3 (05:50):
Yeah, so you have two kids in the military, Jen,
I did not know that.
Speaker 4 (05:55):
I do yeah in California, and I need to be
an aim of a hole.
Speaker 2 (05:59):
I'm mad.
Speaker 4 (06:00):
But she doesn't want to come home for Christmas, and
I'm wondering if that makes me enable.
Speaker 3 (06:04):
You should go to her if she's out in a
nice place.
Speaker 4 (06:07):
I got my parents here and they can't travel, so
they're getting older and up in age, and I feel bad,
like I just want to come home for one's Christmas.
You don't know how many we get left. And I
got a fourteen year old here too.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Why she don't want to come because she's in California
or Hawaii.
Speaker 4 (06:21):
Right, she's in Hawaii. She says she doesn't want to
spend every break just coming home. She wants to that's
the only time off she gets that she wants.
Speaker 6 (06:28):
To go exploring that.
Speaker 1 (06:30):
Yeah, that's hard though, and she's she's brave, brave serving
our country, I know. And you know what, My kids
are the same way like my You know, you hear
me talk about Joe down in Tampa. But I get it,
why the hell you come? Why wouldn't you want to
come home? And you got that weather? Yeah, in Hawaii's
way different. That's a long ways away. Uh, what's going on?
(06:50):
Ali is twenty five years old? And your dad tracks you?
Speaker 8 (06:55):
Yeah? So also first time?
Speaker 4 (06:58):
Yeah?
Speaker 8 (07:02):
Yeah, my dad's been tracking me since high school. But
he does it for.
Speaker 3 (07:08):
You know, safety reasons.
Speaker 8 (07:10):
He tells me that he doesn't you know, he trusts me,
doesn't want.
Speaker 5 (07:13):
To snoop in my business.
Speaker 2 (07:15):
But I feel a sense of comfort that he.
Speaker 6 (07:20):
Watches out for me.
Speaker 8 (07:21):
But I will say though, I do think she is
kind of the equal.
Speaker 5 (07:23):
She's snooping in his business.
Speaker 1 (07:26):
All right, So let's talk to her real quick. Christine
is her name. She's on the phone. She's a mom
of a twenty six year old, so right around your
age as a twenty five year old, what advice do
you want to give her?
Speaker 3 (07:38):
Say hi to her?
Speaker 8 (07:40):
Hi, Christine, Hi.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
I have to say I.
Speaker 5 (07:48):
Think that you have.
Speaker 8 (07:49):
Great intentions on wanting to make sure that he's safe.
Speaker 4 (07:52):
I will say, though, I do think that it is
a little bit nosy.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
And he might just not want to share as much
with you.
Speaker 4 (08:00):
So there's I used Find my Friends with my dad.
Speaker 8 (08:03):
Instead of Life three sixty, and I.
Speaker 4 (08:07):
Just think that that might be better unless nosy.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
Oh, well, you know, I'm used to using it, So
that's my feeling. I'm used to it, and I know
how to use this, but don't change over.
Speaker 5 (08:22):
Just don't constantly text him and make comments about where
he is.
Speaker 3 (08:25):
That would help the situation.
Speaker 5 (08:27):
Mojo was right when he said that.
Speaker 3 (08:29):
Does he live with you? Does your son live with
you still, Christine?
Speaker 2 (08:34):
No, No, he lives on his own.
Speaker 7 (08:36):
He lives on his own.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
If he's did he get home safe the weather?
Speaker 8 (08:40):
You know?
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Well, I make a phone call, don't look at it,
call him and say hey, where are you?
Speaker 3 (08:46):
Don't actually look? Or does this look but you don't
sign look but don't.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
But honestly, like we take it, we've given technology what
we would normally do with a phone call, call him
up and let him be able to be willing to
tell you where he's at. And if he says he's
somewhere he's not, then he's a liar and I wouldn't
trust the son of a bitch.
Speaker 5 (09:04):
But you also, at twenty six, you don't need to
check that he gets home every single night. That's why
I'm saying, like that phone call could be a lot
for him to just check, Okay, yes he's home.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
Good. You just wait till Smith is the same.
Speaker 5 (09:16):
I trust me, I'm crazy. I know I'll be watching
that thing twenty four to seven. I know myself.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
I know it.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
She's going to be living in Smith's house.
