An updated truism

"Give a person a fish and you feed them for a day; teach that person to use
the Internet and they won't bother you for weeks"

. . . unless they're on a Windows PC without virus protection. Then they'll be calling you quite soon to fix it.

There - indicates position: "There it is"
Their - indicates possession: "Their room is down the hall"
They're - contraction of verb form "they are": "They're here!"

They're in their room down there.

YES it makes a difference.
