As the world changes people need to adapt to it, and that includes the older generations. It wasn't even that long ago that the internet and all of the modern technology wasn't even a thing. The Internet is relatively new but has taken the world over, everything these days requires an internet connection. Social media is a whole other story.

With the help of their younger children and grandchildren, even the older generations are on social media now, especially on Facebook where they can connect with friends and family.

Whether it's using the post feature like a search bar, using the wrong emoji, or making an outrageous comment, the elders find the best ways to mess up social media. Here are 25 awkward moments from old people trying to navigate this modern world.
