I taught my hubby how to use the computer and he always wants to get on it when I'm on...... so I don't think I will let him learn to use my sewing machine... I would never get to use it... LOL
As for the bobbin, tell hubby that IS part of sewing. Have him do it while you are watching. I'll be he can do it, just doesn't want to... isn't that how they are. LOVE em, but they sure can be frustrating too
