This might add to the argument of why kids should be introduced to technology from a young age.

When four-year-old Camden Vaughn found his mum Misty unconscious on Sunday night in their home in Dallas, US, he unlocked her phone and made a life-saving call to his dad, Dr Jeremy Vaughn.
Jeremy told Texas WFAA of his son’s call: “He said, ‘Daddy, I need you to come home! Mummy can’t get in the bath because she can’t wake up. And I said: ‘I’m on my way!’”
Misty believed she had a cold but she had passed out with a high fever.
“It was reading 105 (fahrenheit, about 40.5 degrees celsius) on my thermometer, and that’s the last thing I remember.”
Doctors believe she suffered a seizure, and Camden’s quick-thinking saved her life.
Dr Ousama Moammar at Charlton Medical Center said: “Acting early and fast is really of the essence.”
Misty is recovering well, and is incredibly grateful for her son’s quick actions.
“If my brain had continued at that temperature, I could not be the same here … the same or not be here at all for them,” she said.
“I feel like my trust in his responsibility has definitely increased.”
