[quote=Anonymous]OP, I hear you. My 78 year old mom drives down from PA most weeks to spend time with us. I am more and more worried about her driving the kids so I try to avoid having her drive them at all costs. My oldest son (17) takes Lyft when he doesn't have a car to drive. For my younger girls (15 and 12), I spend the money on a rides service for kids (Rubi). Quite honestly I wish she weren't driving at all, but with where she lives in the middle of nowhere it's not an option not to drive. There's a much bigger conversation she refuses to have about moving to assisted living. At a minimum I want her to get a new/used safer car, but unfortunately none of us is in a financial position to just make that happen. It sounds like you need to have a heart-to-heart with DH. He should be the one to rescind the offer to let his mom drive. It's not worth the risk to your DD, your MIL, and the other drivers on the road.[/quote]
