Dad has the newest iPhone and texts downloads and looooooves technology.
My mom... not so much.
So I got her a new phone. Not a smartphone, but something better than the flip phone she's had for years (the one that lives at the bottom of her purse that she keeps switched off at all times).
The new phone has a touch screen and a full keyboard and a camera. And it's purple. If that doesn't get her to keep the phone on, nothing will.
I took it over to the house and patiently showed her how to use it (it seems like it would be intuitive, but if you're not used to computers or computerized things, it's really not).
Here's what's gone down so far.
I've gotten a lot of texts from Mom's phone... from Dad.
Oh well. At least the phone is on.
