[quote=Anonymous]I think you might be overreacting a little because you're stressed the way it is.

My parents are like this. They're in their early 70's. I'm getting married and hired a wedding photographer whose work is all on Facebook, great FB reviews, been around a few years. My mother cannot grasp the concept of hiring someone based off Facebook. She just can't. What worked was something another poster mentioned--telling her that someone I know used her, mentioning an event that she photographed that my mom knew about, word of mouth stuff.

Also, my mom is still the type that writes checks--she's constantly worried about people stealing her credit card info using one of those fictitious machines that you read about where it allegedly pulls the magnetic strip info from your cards when you're standing in line in wal mart. She would feel a lot more comfortable giving me cash to pay for something or writing a check that she feels would be easy to cancel if something went wrong. Can you do this with her to make her feel more comfortable?[/quote]
