[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] I am always available to talk and guide her. [b]However beyond that, I really don't think I need to impose any rules on her now or when she starts to drive.[/b] [/quote] I wouldn't [b]impose[/b] rules on her when she starts to drive, but I would certainly discuss rules, with the goal of coming up with rules that you and she both agree on. The stakes for driving are so high (great expense if you're lucky, dead bodies if you're not) that I would never just hand over the keys to an inexperienced teenager driver, no matter how responsible she might be in everything else. You don't want her to have to learn from personal experience that something (driving when you're really tired, or not looking right again before turning right on red across a crosswalk, or misjudging the speed of oncoming traffic when you're turning left) is a bad idea.[/quote]
