The Independence Talk: Parent Intro Script
Helping your parents maintain independence while giving you peace of mind.
1. The Opening
"Mom/Dad, I've been thinking... I know how much you value living in your own home, and I want to do everything I can to support that independence. But sometimes I worry when I get busy with work/kids and can't call you until late."
2. The Explanation (The Why)
"I found a service that acts like a safety net, not a babysitter. It calls your house phone or cell, whichever you prefer. It's just a simple automated check-in in the morning to ask if you're okay. If you answer, I know everything is fine."
3. The Closing
"Honestly, this is more for my peace of mind than anything else. It stops me from worrying so I can just enjoy our conversations when we do talk. Can we just try it for a week? If you hate it, we can stop."
