[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]pp again - they walk, rent bikes, take the bus, and uber everywhere. [/quote]

We live in in a location where my kids walk to school and bus, metro, ride their bikes, or walk virtually everywhere else. My DS1, now 21, had no interest in driving. I did feel like it was a skill he should learn, so I forced him to get his learners permit at 17, but I found it was difficult to get the practice time in when I was the only one who cared about it. So he went off to college without a license. But he spent the summer after freshman year living with my parents, where there is no public transit, and quickly found that he wanted very much to drive. So he renewed his permit, practiced with my parents all summer, and then got his license. However, he maintains that his preference would be to live where he wouldn't need a car.

DS2 is 15. He shows a little more interest in learning to drive, but not much. I do think he will get his license earlier than his brother, if only because he likes to compete with DS1 that way, lol.[/quote]
