    My daughter recently told us to stop yelling for her when we wanted something from her and to text her instead.

      Daughter is based 👌

      Personally, we use Alexa announcements in our house. So much easier.

        My parents installed an intercom for that reason, but we lived in a pretty big house. This one isn’t that big. It’s not a huge deal though.

        THIS!

        I always try to explain to people why I don’t like when they just call my name across a house.

        If you would like something, come ask me, or shoot me a message if it’s not super important.

        I’m not a dog. I’m not a servant. You will not summon me like one. You will not snap your fingers or whistle to get my attention. If you do, you get ignored.
