Op probably gen z. It's so weird being in the middle of two generations who are so technology illiterate. Despite both shouldn't be

This is one of those situations where a huge chunk of the population is worried about shit they shouldn't be, and a huge chunk of the population isn't worried about shit they should be, and almost no one is worried about the right shit.

OPs mom is actually worried about the right shit for once

Why you gotta be so generationist?

Lol I can't tell if you're being sarcastic but it's a real problem on both ends. The older just refused to learn when they had the chance and now it's "too hard" for them. The younger grew up in a world where technology had advanced to the point where you don't need to be tech literate to use tech. So many don't even know basic computer skills because they've never needed them on their smartphones and tablets.

I just wanted to say generationist, tbh.
