Things your grandchildren have to explain to you

Almost 3 yr old DGS tells me the names of all his dinosaurs!

I'm told by GC TED talks are good, they have to put them on for me. I don't use the Wi as I can't cope and even my DAB radio seems beyond me most days. Spotify sounds great but I don't have it.

Instagram and WhatsApp are closed books to me but that's fine. I enjoy the immediacy of FaceBook but have many doubts about it.

My son has introduced me to Charlie Brooker's tv series Black Mirror. At my request he chooses the ones that won't upset me too much!

But I have been called 'hip hop grandma' so must be getting something right!

Thanks from me too juggernaut

lemongrove I'm with you on the current music scene.
juggernaut thanks for the explanation of Dan TDM

Having a 13 year old DGS I know all about Minecraft ( including Dan and Stampycat) and am shown youtube clips of all sorts of things on a regular basis.
I haven’t heard of many new groups or singers though and when asked by him which was my fave rapper said ‘Eminem’ which happily he was pleased with because he said yes, he was the best rapper of all time.

I never mastered Angry Birds which a 4-year-old grandson tried to explain to me, to the amusement of all the other passengers in our train compartment. He is now 10 and far beyond me in his expertise in computer technology.

As our DGS is only nineteen months old, I asked a twelve year old neighbour who or what Dan TDM is.
She looked at me pityingly, sighed and explained that he's a 'professional gamer'(?) who appears on YouTube, has a previous incarnation as 'Diamond Minecart' and a net worth of somewhere in the region of £12.3 million quid!
Twelve million, three hundred thousand pounds!!!
£12,300,000!!!!!

How to use a drive through at McDonalds.

How to use WhatsApp! And that's just for starters..........

This has been the conversation in our house this week.
Me to GD "is that age suitable" ?
GD to me "yes grandma it's Dan TDM", the look on my face must have said it all, she rolled her eyes and carried on.

I laughed at your OP Gerispringer my grandson (8) has attempted to teach me minecraft but it remains a complete mystery to me . The girls (12 & 10) are forever showing me YouTube clips that go straight over my head . And yes they know all their names like they’re top celebrities !

Who Dan TDM is.
