Understanding how to use technogy

I really have a hard time trying to use the technology around me. I have to say I have come along way. I learn something new everyday wether it is from Jeff my instructor in this class, or my children at home. They are so into computers, and they know what to do when something goes wrong with it. I know that when I was thier age I wasn't fortunate to have a computer in our home. You see, I come from a family of eight children myself being the youngest of the rest. The only time we were able to use a computer was when we were in school, or a friend we knew had a computer at there home. So now for my children they are fortunate enough to be able to have a home computer and a lap top in thier home, something I didn't have. They love it. So do I, now that I'm learning to use it. LOL.
