solo female traveler - indian (early 20s)

hi all! im in my early 20s (indian) from the US looking to solo travel to bangkok for a few days at the end of may this year. i just plan to stay in bangkok for the whole trip, as i'll be in india for the rest of my trip. the problem is, i have strict indian parents who are freaking out about me traveling alone in the country, esp after the recent earthquake. they are bringing up statistics about human trafficking as well as talking about all the damage that has been caused by the earthquake, with buildings that collapsed and bangkok in general being declared as a disaster zone.

my question is: are my parents' fears valid and should i think twice before solo traveling to bangkok by myself? would it be foolish to travel alone, given the recent events in bangkok, and is it safe for a female solo traveler?
