I love my mom very much but she is one of those people who, if you show them a useful thing on the internet, will (instead of, say, reading the website and clicking around to figure it out) immediately ask a million questions, the answers to which would be really obvious if she'd just read literally anything in front of her or scroll down two inches and it makes me absolutely crazy.

I realize that everybody learns differently and that's valid and fair, but my mom's learning style is directly opposite to mine (which is "read and experiment until I figure it out, ask questions of real actual people last and only if forced to"). The urge, after the first few questions, to just yell "Oh my god, just figure it out!" is very strong.
