WOw! A milestone in every family... . scarry too! Have you been with her when she has driven? Did she show caution and respect for the road? Title: Re: License Post by: BioAdoptMom3 on March 21, 2013, 10:19:03 PM CONGRATULATIONS to her! At least you are looking on the bright side - not home and not asking for your car :)
Title: Re: License Post by: twojaybirds on March 23, 2013, 01:14:51 PM caution on the road :) she failed the test 2 times before finally passing (went to some hick town that has a reputation for passing everyone) Once she failed it because she ran a redlight yet blamed the driving tester in the passenger seat for that one.
Title: Re: License Post by: jellibeans on March 23, 2013, 03:17:42 PM Oh I am sorry but I just had to laugh at the red light blaming... . really this has put a smile on my face today... . my dd15 will be 16 this summer and I worry about this a lot... . my h wants to seel our truck which is handed down from her older sister... . I told him to hold on to it... . I am trying to see a future where she does drive and show that kind of level of responsiblity... .
congrats to your dd... . maybe this accomplishment will make her feel good about herself... . try to celebrate a bit...

My husband was mortified. The examiner was furious and said my son needed help. (really? :)) he finally passed aged 20 on the 6th attempt at a different test center. 5 accidents and 2 tickets in one year... . when he left, we signed his wreck of a car over to him and got him to insure himself. Apparently, he's not had an accident since he's been paying :) |
