My mam, on the other hand, replies to messages so old, we never have a clue what she's referring to.
"Great news, you must be so happy!" she'll type, after one of my brothers has uploaded seven photos of his kid.
"What?!" we'll all message back, one by one, trying to figure out which of us she's even talking to.
"Noel and Shannon are getting married", she'll reply (three hours later).
Yeah mum, a month ago!!
Cue several lines of face palm monkeys.
The parental technology challenge is real.
This Twitter user, however, may have the coolest mum on WhatsApp ever.
Dave McGinn posted a screen grab to his account of the first exchange between him and his mam when he added her to their family WhatsApp group;
He got OWNED. Love it, keep up the good work mum! Join the conversation on Twitter @HerFamilydotieMy dad bought my mam a smartphone for her birthday, and she has just been added to the family WhatsApp group?pic.twitter.com/lmUV87lWfG
