Do you think millennials who grew up with the early Internet and home computers will be as bad with future technology as boomers are with current technology?

My wife and I started talking about this after she had to help an old lady at the DMV figure out how to use her iPhone to scan a QR code. We're in our early 40s.

I'm a primary school teacher, not related to computers, but every year kids are getting measurably worse with coins and money. I can give quite a few 9 year olds a few coins, and they would have a seriously hard time quantifying the amount. It's funny the parents come to me saying their kid needs to be extended, but I'm just here saying "bro, your kid can't even buy himself an ice-cream."
I've tried very hard to teach my child about money and she does have an allowance and kind of gets it, but she's got a lot of difficulty with change and with sales tax. I wish I was a better teacher, but I do my best.
Sales tax being added after-the-fact fucks with literally everyone. It's stupid.
Well... not everyone. Mostly just people in the US.
Ha, I thought Monopoly would help with money. But then realized how freaking long is takes doing transactions that I st did all the banking to save 2 hours 😄. I should probably teach my kid Acquire instead about money and change.
Acquire...like Dabo?
Ha, Dabo is the roulette game. The other game I can't remember the name of the ferengi play.
