And yes Tom, I agree. I know my mother does that. She will call and read an entire website to me but somehow misses the big button that says “checkout' or 'next' every time. Then when I'm there she ask my opinion on her purchase. I'm fairly certain that she just wanted me to come see it before she completed the order! Although, she is no longer allowed on Facebook. She got very confused with wall post and private messages.

*laugh* I can imagine.
My dad rings me up for computer advice, but whenever he does, the problem description is always a very frustrated “It doesn't work!” Getting more detail out of him (like “Does it have power?”, “What were you doing?” etc) is completely hopeless.
I finally just installed Logmein on his computer so I can just get on it myself and have a look.

If Dad does this often enough, maybe Stephen will just make the damn casserole and bring it to him. Or take him out to dinner.
I swear, I think my mother plays computer illiterate just to get me to visit more often.
I love these…

Oh god, that chicken casserole one makes me laugh EVERY TIME I READ IT. It makes me feel like a simpleton, but it's so frigging funny.

There were some appallingly bad examples on that site of bad parenting, but somehow… not so funny…

Or should that be 'incredibly good examples of bad parenting”??! It so should!
