When you ask your parents for the latest PlayStation, but instead you get older, more obscure gaming console Commodore CDTV / Philips CD-i / Casio Loopy because your parents don't want to get addicted to video games. Same as when you ask your parents for the latest smartphone, but instead you get Texas Instrument calculator that has always been the same since 1995, a Jewish flip phone, an MP3 nugget, and a digital camcorder because your parents don't want to get addicted to smartphone.
When I asked my parents for the latest PlayStation, I ended up with a Commodore CDTV instead, highlighting the classic parental technology mismatch.

Parentitis

When daughter or sons are obsessed with their parents. They could never let go of them, you are always with them 24/7 . That is a promblem because if you know you have a man with these serious conditions PLEASE LEAVE HIM. He will never leave his parents and if he does you had promblem dragged him out. And if you didn’t do either that means you are safe because he doesn’t have parentitis.

Parents

They know that this is happening. I'm going to have the conversation whether they me to or not. This isn't optional for them anymore. I don't care. This is beyond them "feeling bad."
Hym "I provide context for everything regarding my parents and none of that if untrue. This isn't an alright thing for them to abide. They are perfectly aware of what they need to do."
