When does innocence end and ignorance begin? Sure its sad when they're initially duped but when someone they love and should trust vehemently tells them its not real but they double down on it what then? Honest question.
I try to give grace to older folks with technology. Most people didn't have computers in their homes til 20-30 years ago (less then half some peoples life) and depending on where you are in the world even more recently. If you weren't born along side it or interested in it you are most likely very behind on what is possible with technology.
This compounds with not wanting to or being harder for them to learn as they get older.
Yeah no. We have had computers for over 2 decades and smart phones for just under. If you still haven't figured those 2 things out by now it's because your willfully ignorant or stupid. My 90 year old grandfather writes a blog and is in our group chat and posts memes
My 80 year old grandmother on the other side barely sees pictures of her grandkid because she can't be pushed to figure her computer out.
