Ya there's no such thing as "being forced to use it". What are they going to do, lock you in your room with no food if you refuse? Just stand up for yourself and say you are not comfortable having it in your room and don't compromise on it.
Well some parents can lock you in a room with no food especially in developing countries
Developing countries probably don't have like 4 amazon echos in the house as an intercom system though, tbf.
You'd be surprised what stuff has a higher priority for purchase.
IMHO the only reason they don't is because they don't know how to use it or do not care...
