SHe doesn't know what a record player is because noone has taught her what a record player player is. I grew up in the 70s with multiple record players in my house but I guarantee I didn't know what one was or how to use one until someone showed me. Stop shaming kids these days for not knowing what outdated or non-ubiquitous technology is. Just teach them what it is and how to use it and enjoy that discovery with them.

  Record players aren't outdated or non-ubiquitous technology. Vinyl will never die. There was a period when it was difficult to find your favorite artist on vinyl, because CD's took over. Then it flipped back and vinyl was all the rage again and outsold CD's.
  Record Store Day and the vinyl offerings grows each year, and artist wouldn't keep having their albums recorded on vinyl, if record players were hard to locate and/or difficult to find.
  The only outdated or non-ubiquitous technology, would be a pay phone.

"You could just listen to that on Youtube". Does the Mom not realize that every album ever made is also on youtube? You buy records for uncompressed analogue audio. Taylor Swift will sound just as much better as the Beatles on vinyl.

Well, she is a child who is learning so maybe instead of the parent filming her for internet cred she explains what a record is.
