Put your parents on a VPN, great idea, instead of the other way around where I am the sole VPN user and pay more for my Internet connection because surfing without a VPN just feels weird these days. Also five minutes of OSINT on Google tells me I share my ISP-Issued IP with at least 1000 other paying subscribers, whereas a VPN can run into the millions of users, albeit not all using that VPN-Issued IP at the same time.

Putting everything behind a VPN might a bit too drastic as it might start disrupting services relying o geolocation for fraud detection etc. But at least some traffic, for many reason, it's better to be shipped via vpn.
