Are your parents technologically inept?
Simple question, can your parents use technology?
Mines can't, they can't even use a printer without me helping them

Yes. It was so hard to talk them into getting smartphones, they love it now though.
They're ok with computers and tablets too.

My mom can do basic things like email but she barely understands how google works
My dad has always embraced technology, he got our first computer in the early 90's and even signed me up for an email account when I was 4

Both of them are alright for their age, my dad works in IT though so he has an advantage.

My mom is okay. She has an iPhone, but yea.
My dad, yes, completely. Always calling me asking me to look this and that up. The pits, tbh.
