Karin Reneland, in its letters to the editor on the DN View, right in that many older people have big problems to keep up with the digital revolution. Society is undergoing a change as great as when the electricity was invented.
It is society’s task to take hold of this. Pensionärsorganisationerna have courses, but it is not enough.
the Municipalities should draw up lists of young helpers, who you can turn to. Young people usually think it’s fun to be able to help, so probably not that big allowance in money at every relief operation.
to be able to turn to school for help. There are people that can the new digital technologies. And it should be possible to have some resource for help.
In some cases it would even be able to be included in the teaching to help the elderly to handle cell phone, tablet and computer. To give the school such a task would certainly be appreciated amongst the citizens, and give students a certain amount of pride in what they can accomplish of the goods in the society.
be able to continue to go on courses arranged by pensionärsorganisationer and educational institutes.
the Library has computers. It may be possible to get a helping hand by the staff.
the Development is ambiguous. First, the devices become easier to manage, and have the content all the more advanced, so there is more to learn. For those who have grandchildren, there is usually help available for those who feel alien to the “digital magic”.
