[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No strict parent would even contemplate driving a kid 45 minutes to school just so he doesn't have to figure out how to spend 2 hours in the morning.

You want to be the cool one.[/quote]

Op here, how is this for strict, *I* am the big bad mom who isn't letting him get his driver's license because among other reasons, 16 is too young. LOL, yes I want to be the cool mom. Ha ha.[/quote]
This and you driving 1.5 hours for eyebrow waxing changes my opinion.

Not letting him get a drivers license is infantilizing him unless there is some established reason.  And, the license and car could solve this whole problem also.  That you have enough free time for 1.5 hours on eyebrow waxing makes me think that the reason driving midday isn't a problem for you is because you've got nothing going on in your life.  I could drive my kid midday, but it would mean an interruption from this or a postponement of that, whereas for you it seems like the entire day is empty, leaving you plenty of time.[/quote]
