Some parents hand over their iPad to their children without thinking twice.
For one journalist, it almost became a cautionary tale when his three-year-old son almost locked him out of his iPad for 47 years.
The toddler was trying out different pass codes before the system decided it needed the right one.
Thankfully, there were some useful tips by strangers and online that helped the man get back into his iPad without the decades-long wait.
