[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Absolutely not. I wouldn’t let a kid have a driver’s license until they were 18 too. Worked in ER/trauma too many years, seen too many tragedies. At 16, kids make bad decisions, get distracted and don’t understand the reality of consequences. Last thing for a 16 year old’s safety you want to do is gift them with a new car to show off in. If you love them, let them wait, gain a little more maturity. [/quote]

So you would rather have then riding with their friends who are making bad decisions while driving?

A police officer friend once gave my sister wise advice when her son came of age for driving.  He told her to get him his license sooner rather than later or he would be riding with his friends who were making bad decisions while driving.  I completely agree with this!

Also, the more driving experience before they go off to college, the better.[/quote]

ummm no. I can drive him. Or he can have extra practice with me in the car. Its not a case of well if he doesnt drive he will be driving with his friends. There are other options[/quote]
