Sometimes our parents need some basic help using the computer. Maybe like

 

  • COPY & PASTE
  • ADJUST THE TIME ON YOUR CLOCK
  • CHANGE YOUR DESKTOP BACKGROUND (MAC)
  • CHANGE YOUR WALLPAPER (PC)
  • MAKE TEXT BIGGER (OR SMALLER)
  • TAKE A SCREENSHOT
  • CHANGE YOUR SCREENSAVER (MAC)
  • CHANGE YOUR SCREENSAVER (PC)
  •  

    or other things but do you have the patience to show them how? Usually not. We usually just tell them "here it's done".  If you are that person send them to www.teachparentstech.org. This site has basic free tutorials that you can send to your parents or just anybody who needs help. Even has an email template you just fill in.  There are no excuses.
