[quote=Anonymous]Is there no public transport where you live? If you live near a bus line or metro, she really should be getting around by herself, especially during the day. I grew up in NW DC and sometimes at night my parents would be me up or drop me off at the subway that was a mile away. Otherwise I was walking to the metro or taking the 30 bus. Sometimes I would take a cab. She needs to start getting around more by herself. If you have no public transport, then tell her you will drive her X number of places a week and after that, she starts accruing babysitting hours she has to do in return for all your driving. And make it clear she may need to pay it forward to drive the little ones around once she has her license![/quote]
