Like a button to send a message to my phone? My father is on the other side of the house and I cant always hear him. So something he can press to get my attention if he needs something.

He's in his 80s, he has a cell phone. He just can't use it very well any more.

We don't use Echo/Alexa or any of that nonsense in my house. I don't want something that literally listens to everything you do.

Then if this isn't a troll topic then you're shit out of luck if he can't text and you can't figure out a DIY option. I would ignore tinfoil hat monitoring theories for such an important application with an 80 year old father but it's your life. To save myself time in the future

Again, feel free to leave the topic. Simply because your answer didnt suit my needs, and I have a valid reason not to use it, doesnt mean you should resort to pathetic trolling. Grow up a little.

And the troll is getting even more pathetic. How sad does your ego need to be to throw this much of a fit because your suggestion wasnt accepted when it wasnt what was asked for?

Then maybe people should read the topic, and not throw fits when given valid reasons why their suggestion wont work.

Coincidentally, said children are free to not enter said topic rather than have a melt down over it.
