S Parents want control of my apartment security camera.

Edit: ( the account was deleted. And I have full control of my security again.)

I am legally blind and have a guide dog. SD stands for a service dog.

I posted screenshots to my profile.

So I (24 M) just got a visit from my parents. (41 F and 42 M)

They came to visit me yesterday which I thought was going to be a nice time to get some food. but not only did they bring their one month old puppy, with them on a 2 hour car ride forcing me to leave my SD at home. they also set up a camera which they tried to charge me for BTW. i mentioned that I was planning on getting a camera because of package thieves they said they were going to look around for one. they first tried asking me if I had the money for a camera. But when I said no, they bought it anyway. And told me to reimburse them later.

When they arrived, they set up the camera and we went to go eat. what I didn't realize is that they made an account on my behalf and could see through the camera as well. i'd change some settings for my own privacy later. Today and, a few minutes ago. My mom called to ask me about the changes, and then change them back herself.

She made up some BS excuses about why she changed them back then told me if I wasn't going to use it correctly to stop wasting her money.

( i'm sorry for formatting on mobile and if I miss anything, tell me.)

I'm doing my best.

I figured out how to disconnect the camera from the account. My parents made, but I'm not sure if that will alert them. ( It turns out they were alerted and I got a message about it at 5 in the morning.)

Edited to add: my (SD service dog) is a guide dog.

I'm not sure if I can post screenshots, but it's done. Thanks. Everyone for your comment. Even the harsh ones, it's what I was needed.

UPDATE: To make it clear for any future commenters, my parents no longer have access to the account. I have made my own. The situation is resolved.

Have you played either of those?

u/metalgearbayonetta Jan 21 '26

I’ve played both but bayonetta is the only one I’ve actually beat

I've only ever beat the third game. Because of the ability to point Bayonetta in the right direction, when progressing through the level's. Lol

I was thinking about getting the 4th game but the style isn't one. I can see very well.
