> Security Keys. Your mother and siblings have seen keys before right? They can understand the metaphor and use it. Several of the accounts listed, such as Google and Facebook allow Security Keys.

The problem with these is, they can get lost, stolen, damaged or misplaced. With a physical key to the home, no problem - call up a locksmith and if you don't have an ID card also the police, he'll drill out the lock and you can enter your home back.

Google, Facebook, whatever - good luck trying to get into touch with a human to reset your "security key".
