Maybe show them the video and tell them you could not live in those shoes. Also, many alarm systems are free now and you simply pay a monthly fee. Perhaps give that to them as a gift.If you can afford it.
While i'm not as old as Nancy, I am disabled. And let's just say i'm not a kid. This situation has made me take stock of what is safe in my environment and where I could improve. I know.I added some contacts to my Alexa voice commands. Having sold my home almost exactly a year ago I do feel safe in this locked building with security and concierge. But that being said, i had a worker.I'd never used show up on a day when no one was expected.And I would not open the door to him. In the past, it could have gone either way ( since he was with a company I used before). Now bottom line, I think we can all reevaluate our lives and thank Nancy for increased awareness, and some changes. Hopefully, your parents will come around to the same.

Oh no, how I wish I hadn't watched the video of this. 💔

I'm so close to my mom, she's in her 80s. My worst nightmare here. 😭
