There are well known tools to remote access a pc from an android phone or tablet e.g. Teamviewer even over internet.

What is less well known is you can do it in reverse ie take full remote control of android tablet or phone from a pc using Teamviewer Quick Support on some brands of android eg Samsung or HTC.

For brands not supported, you can take full remote control if device is rooted, but only partial control if not rooted. However on lollipop, you can see remote screen on pc for non rooted devices, so you can talk somebody through menus.

So if your dear old Ma has a Samsung and calls you up with a problem, you can sort it out remotely.

See 'remote control of android' video devices on website for a (cheesy) demo..
