Backstory: this is what I received after telling my parents they were ridiculous (I missed two texts from my mother [within 10 minutes of each other] and then received a text from my father an hour later telling me to respond to my mother)

Well. We have two options here. I could be deeply offended and stop being concerned when I contact you and 8 hours later you haven’t found 1 spare minute to get back to me. OR I could ignore your umbridge and continue to care enough about your welfare to risk your anger and pester you until I get some sort of response that would let me know that you haven’t fallen in your apartment where you are alone, hit your head, and are laying unconscious and no one knows because you are not expected anywhere. Sorry for your luck to have a parent that worries.
