[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When did you do this- when your child got their permit? Their full license? Did it make your rates go up astronomically? Also- how much did they drive before you had them take the test?  My husband would say “that’s an hour” literally any time she drove at all, so even though her little booklet says she has the requisite number of hours, I know she doesn’t.  Should I insist on more practice before having her take the test? TIA[/quote]

Has she satisfied all of her in-car driving sessions with her driving school?  I learned too late, that it's better to get driving in with Mom and Dad first and save the in-car sessions, or at least most of them, until closer to full (provisional) test time.  I front loaded my DS with them last summer when we had more time, and he's developed some bad habits (e.g., not coming to a complete stop at a stop sign, not always signaling).  He has one more session and I'm waiting until a week or two before he takes his test in April to get that last one in so the instructor can hopefully prepare him for the test.

Another option for you is to pay for additional driving time with the driving school.  I have some friends and coworkers who have done that for their kids.  [/quote]
