I (32F) have an overprotective single father. I know he means no harm but he’s severely draining my energy. I promised to visit him every weekend after moving out to live on my own.

This week, I found that he planted an Airtag, a location tracking device, on my car without telling me.

I value my freedom and privacy very much. I often go out of my way to erase my social media presence. I make sure that only a handful of selected friends can contact me and even fewer knows what I’m up to. When I was alerted that an unknown Airtag (which I immediately knew where it came from) was following me, I was furious.

I called my father and confronted him asking where he hid it. He was surprised I found out and refused to tell me where it was. I eventually found the Airtag purposefully hidden under my car, glued to a magnet.

We just had a conversation about this issue of his today (we had it almost every week tbh) and I was starting to opening up to him. Then I came home to find this airtag and I honestly just want to disappear and never see him again (which I wouldn’t but it’s just how I feel).

Am I overreacting? AITA?
