Ignorance of the man.
I'm 71 and got into computers big time when doing my degree in the 1980s. My final thesis was the use of IT in the study of history.
After I retired, I took on voluntary work to teach 50+ on using their computers/laptops. Courses were free and there was a waiting list for those wanting the 6 week courses. Reasons for using their computers varied: communicating with families, shopping, research for their hobbies, entertainment. The list is endless. I really enjoyed it. Feedback from those attending was so rewarding too. They really appreciated someone their age teaching them. They had got fed up with youngsters rushing them through tuition.
A year ago, I managed the sale of step mother's house. Agent, we chose was put on a time limit to sell. I hope your client sarahcyn has something like this and can find a better agent when the fixed period is up. I asked for a weekly list of who they had contacted, who had seen the property and the feedback from all.
