[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]HS Senior got into another accident and the car was declared a loss by our insurance company. DH wants to buy another vehicle, since he does not want to shuttle anyone around...he is done. I really don't think we need to buy another vehicle, since our senior is headed to college in August and it is a second car accident within a year. I do not believe there is any sense of responsibility or ownership on our teenagers' part. I am also not wanting another car and insurance expense. I believe we can remain car free until August and our child can rely on friends and us for transportation. Any ideas? What would you do?[/quote] I would do the shuttling. That's the consequence. If the kid needs independence then s/he can put some $$ toward a new one. Not necessarily pay for a whole car, but put enough that s/he feels ownership and may be more careful. [/quote]
