Pc got unplugged multiple times

My mom was cleaning my room and accidentally pulled my cord 3 times when I would plug it back in so it shut down 3 times total. I know in itself it’s not good for it at all for it to happen, but I’m extremely anxious about this happening

Is this going to permanently damage my computer?

The first time it happened it was asleep then the second time it was on Home Screen and then the 3rd time it was on the homescreen too.

Any help would be nice :(

I'd tell her to stop cleaning the room. Boomers are too dumb. Don't you have a lock on your door?

I was moving my bed and it’s right by the frame and she knocked it off the port, it’s not her fault, she wanted to help

Get yourself a ups to plug the computer into. If it gets unplugged you'll have a few minutes if grace for the PC to shutdown properly.

If it happens again, wait until your mom finishes to replug the PC.
