Finally convinced my parents to stop reusing the same password everywhere

They had been using a variation of their dog's name for their bank, email, and even their Wi-Fi for years. I showed them how a breach at one site could unlock everything else using a free password manager. Anyone have tips for explaining 2FA to someone who barely uses their phone?

Trying to explain 2FA to my mom nearly broke my brain.

Oh man, I feel that. My mom still writes her passwords down on a sticky note, @reeseb73.
