[quote=Anonymous]"But you aren't in my household so you don't know the reasons! My younger is going to a school where he doesn't need a car and he is leaving soon. We said we would let him drive my car until he goes to college and when he can bring his car to college, he will get a new car and his will last longer.

My older son was older, got a car in high school and he really wanted one and he now has his at college."

This makes no sense.

One kid got his very own car while he was still in high school but the other one didn't and instead had to use mom's car when she wasn't driving it. Unlikely it's a car a teen boy would like if it's his mom's, whereas the first kid got to select the car he wanted. That's unfair.

Neither kid would have known where they were attending college until late fall of senior year at the earliest, so the whole timing it with whether you need a car at a particular college campus argument doesn't work. How did the older kid know that he'd be accepted into a college where cars are allowed and needed? [/quote]
