old people and technology drive my crazy

I got my grandma a tablet for Christmas to replace her older one which has started freezing. I called her this morning and she says she ‘doesn’t know how to use it’. It uses Android OS, the same as her old one, and I set it up the same as her old one, but because the wallpaper is different and the clock widget is different apparently that means it’s a whole new system and she’s getting herself in a muddle.

Maybe I should have followed my dad’s advice and got her something else, because, as he said…: ‘She’s 88, what’s the point in getting her a new tablet. She’ll be dead before the old one completely breaks anyway’

My father still uses an 8-track in his pickup truck. He says he likes it because he can insert the cassettes with one hand and press the right buttons without taking his eyes off the road, which means he won't be upgrading to CD's anytime soon!
