I have the manual for 1 of the machine and have it threaded, its the bobbin I'm having issues with. Are they easier on the new machines?

I seen the Brothers at Walmart. Are your girls liking it???? Are they beginners?
A serger is only good for finishing edges, you would still need a sewing machine. Unless you do a lot of sewing they are really not necessary. I just zig zag them on my regular sewing machine.

T shirt fabric and fleece don't frey so it isn't necessary to do anything with the seams if you don't want to.

I don't know how old your machine is, or what the bobin is like, but they really aren't difficult. All machines are different. The bobin thread also has tension on it, so if it's not loaded right, you will have a "mell of a hess".
