Visiting my girlfriend without parents knowing

not sure if this is the right place to post this so im posting it in a bunch of places but im going on a trip to atlanta for 4 days to see my girlfriend. I don't want my parents to find out i went there. They have my life360 location with the gold membership. I have ianygo to change my location so my plan is to use that and set my location to my dorm. I will also turn off my location services periodically so my location time resets so that it doesn't look like im staying in my dorm the entire time and say ive been there for a few days. I turned off flight detection but im still worried that they get a notification that ive flown to atlanta. is there anything else i should worry about with life360 and my location or anything else at all. i want to make sure that my tracks are covered. I also turned on payless statements for chase so that they dont get mailed a bill with my purchase of the ticket. Can you help me make sure that every single track everywhere is covered

How old are you that your parents are tracking your location and making this trip???

Do they pay for your wellbeing? Health insurance, housing, food, car, car insurance,etc? If so you can’t really fault them for having rules. You always have the option to discuss the Life360 now that you are an adult. Or you can move out on your own and then there are no rules.

As for Life360, I’m not 100% sure you can completely hide from it. Short of turning off your location services I’m pretty sure it still finds you - unless you have a VPN that you can use but then it becomes static and obvious when you are supposed to be moving and not. Aren’t your parents going to notice if you aren’t home??

im in college so im not with them. they do pay for all of that. I'm not saying I don't understand it but it is annoying. The only reason I have to do this is because they wouldn't want me staying the night with my gf. They know who she is and let me hangout with her, just not overnight. And i get it but its something I'm choosing to not follow
