No matter our age we can probably remember a person older and younger than we who influences or influenced our lives. It could have been an aunt, a teacher, a mom or dad, the librarian that could always locate just the right resource. Most of us also remember a grandparent that taught us something we would have never learned without them. Admit it, wasn't it a teen that you went to for help before you first became internet savey?
