[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I taught my 14yo daughter how to drive this summer - in a parking lot associated with an empty grocery store in our non-DMV medium sized city. There were no poles or barriers for the car to hit for several hundred feet in any direction. Nothing terrible happened. She learned how to operate the car successfully. That's it.

The legal age for driving in our state is 15 and she will get a permit and go through the real education process before I let her drive anywhere other than this one lot. My rationale for teaching her now was safety-related - in the extremely unlikely event that she would ever need to drive my car due to me being incapacitated in some way.

I guess I'm a horribly irresponsible parent![/quote]

That’s a super weird way to spend time and a really unlikely scenario. I could only see that happening in the unlikely situation you go hiking somewhere remote without cell service and break your legs and she has to drive to a hospital or to a place where you can get cell service to call for help because no one is around and you are stranded.
