My mom is the same way. She’s really capable and smart, but she will also stop herself from plugging something in because she’s unsure.

I convinced her that she can figure out any remote and they are designed to be figured out. I told her at most there’s gonna be 5 buttons she doesn’t understand and it won’t break anything to hit them. Most of the buttons are numbers or volume and channel up down, power.

She got that. When her mom was sick and had different tvs because of different circumstances my mom would be like, “I did figure out the remote tho and was able to get the television working.”

I was with my 3 year old niece the other day and she turned on the receiver and then the television and I said , “wow, I’m impressed you figured that out.” And she said , “yeah when grandma watches me she doesn’t know how”. . .
