i tried to teach my mom who i know would later teach my dad. however, the internet connection in their place was sooooo slow that it took out the excitement of what they can do had they learned how to surf. i asked my sibling why he never tried teaching mom and he said the same internet connection as the cause. they'd be going dsl soon and would be using another provider.

My dad and mom don't know how to use the computer. I wan to teach them, but I am now living in a university campus in another city far from them, so there leaves no enough time for me to help. How I wish they know how to use computer! If they knew how to use a computer and surf on net, I could get in tough with them by webcam and skype, which is cheaper and more convenient than talking on phone.

i asked my single siblings who are living with my parents to switch to another internet provider and go dsl so that my mother and father can see their only grandchild who is my son. it would be less tiring and less exoensive also if they could see each other everyday online.

My parents both know how to use a computer. They both use them at work every day. My Mom was on-line long before I was. She is one of the reasons I got my computer.

Neither of my parents know how to use the computer, less the internet. I myself saw a computer for the first time when I was eleven, my mom bought us a now seven year old computer, although I was quickly recognized as a computer whiz-kid by everyone around me w

No,,,,the poor things, they just couldn't operate the computer. They were both good with typewriters though. I wonder what I'll be very illiterate at when I grow old.
