The only generation that ever knew how to set the clock on a VCR: our parents needed our help; our kids won't have even seen a VCR outside of a museum, much less used one.
Very interesting point. Wonder about the generation before and what skills they had to share with their parents who were most likely traumatised from a world war or two.
I remember setting the vcr clock and tuning the new tv with the remote. I’m sure the adults could of figured it out but they probably got more from seeing their ‘smart’ kids figuring it out in time for the cartoons!
