What troubles does the continuous innovation of household appliances bring to ordinary families?

With the development of the times, technology continues to advance. Indeed, there are many things we use today. Inadvertently it seems that everything has fallen behind. The previous analog signal TV was replaced by high-definition TV, and now it is replaced by Internet TV. You can watch more programs by directly connecting the network cable or wireless connection. Although many people now buy things online, they are all using new multi-functional mobile phones. And there are still a considerable number of elderly people who are out of touch with today's era. I only use ordinary old people's mobile phones. Apart from making calls, I don't even reply to text messages.

I once had such an old man around me. Their children are very busy and seldom go home. The old couple just watch TV and go around when they have nothing to do. The filial sons and daughters bought them today's latest television. An Internet connection is required to watch. As a result, this old couple often called me and asked me to help adjust the TV. In fact, it is not the fault of the TV. It is often because they accidentally touched the remote control, resulting in changes in performance and parameters. A considerable number of elderly people are completely ignorant of today's new things and refuse to learn. They regard things that they don't understand at all as very dangerous and refuse to accept them.

For example, mobile WeChat payment, red envelope transfer, and online shopping are now available. It can provide us with great convenience. But older people will choose to refuse. Because they don’t understand, they don’t want to learn, and they are not interested in this thing. Ordinary households can still use it if they still use old appliances, but it is not very convenient. New and updated products have some high-tech content, so proper learning is still necessary. Although the elderly are too old to keep pace with the times, they cannot give up learning completely. Otherwise, if you encounter a problem and there is no one around to help, it will be really troublesome.
