My Parents

Guest post written by Derick Burks

My parents are so hard headed but I’ve been pretty insistent upon them
learning some new tech skills. They didn’t want me to but I’ve been looking into
Boise wireless internet providers to get them home internet and I’ve already had a
home security alarm installed – a digital system – in their home. I got them a
cellphone to share and though it took a whole Saturday I taught them how to use
it and I keep telling mom I’m going to start sending her emails rather than
calling her. They’re just really resistant to new technology which I just don’t
understand since they’ve got me willing to help them learn what they need to
stay abreast of what’s going on. They’re not that old so they need to know some
stuff to really stay current and I just feel better about them being more connectedsince
they live all the way out on the farm. I don’t know much about technology, just
some everyday stuff, but it’s nice to pass it along to them.
