<em>C. Tracey pushed the cart between I and Dad. </em>
The object of a preposition can be a noun or pronoun. In sentence C, <em>between</em><em> </em>would be the preposition, and <em> </em><em>I and Dad </em>would<em> </em>be the object of the preposition<em>. </em>The remaining sentences are not examples of pronouns used as objects of preposition. Sentences A and B use the objective cases incorrectly, it should be: <em>them</em> instead of <em>they,</em> and <em>her</em> instead of <em>she</em>. Sentence C uses <em>between you and me</em> as subject and not as object of preposition.
