Make sure your parents are sitting down. Tell them you know this sounds unusual, but Roomba, despite what they think, is a really special robot and gets along great with the kids. If your father starts saying, “No daughter of mine is going to …,” tell him he’s being a narrow-minded technophobe.

What happens when I leave my Roomba home alone?

Excessively long charging periods. Vacuuming the same spot over and over. Not moving.
