Guides
Short, honest guides for families looking after a parent in India from far away. Each one is built around something we actually know — a real call, a real number with its source, the way the product is designed — and is edited and signed by the founder.
- How to check on your parents in India when you live abroad — the options compared on cost and on what your parent has to do, a time-zone table, and a plan for this week.
- A daily check-in call for your parents: what a good one sounds like — the anatomy of one real call, what to insist on from any service, and what a call honestly costs.
- Phone scams and your parents: what to tell them, in their language — the three stories every scam uses and the one line that defeats them, in eleven languages.
- How to tell your mother a computer will ring her, and have her say yes — what to say, why her own consent matters more than your persuasion, and what the first call sounds like.
- What Meenira remembers between calls, and what she never keeps — facts rather than recordings, one callback per call, what you can correct or delete, and what is never kept.
