So I need help because my mom can’t see my location on her phone. I’ve shared it through text and I don’t see anything in my settings like turned off. She told me today that the fund my phone is now not showing my location either. I know it’s something on my phone because she can see all of our other family members location it’s just mine. I just need help fixing this as soon as possible.

Hello caylah48,
This link has some helpful information and the steps to share your location with family members: Share locations with family members and locate their lost devices on iPhone
Share your location with family members
When you share locations with your family, they can see your location in Find My. You can also get notified when family members change their locations—for example, if a child leaves school during school hours.
Note: To share your location, you must have Location Services turned on in Settings> Privacy. See Control the location information you share on iPhone.
1. Go to Settings > [your name] > Family Sharing > Location Sharing, then turn on Share My Location.
2. If your iPhone isn’t currently sharing your location, tap Use This iPhone as My Location.
3. Tap the name of a family member you want to share your location with, then tap Share My Location.
You can repeat this step for each family member you want to share your location with. Each family member receives a message that you’re sharing your location and can choose to share their location with you.
4. To stop sharing your location with a family member, tap the name of the family member, then tap Stop Sharing My Location.
For the steps to locate family member’s devices, please check out the "Locate a family member’s device" part of the above link as well.
Thanks!
