[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You have to be 18 to use Uber, right?  Anyway a 16 yr old daughter of a friend was propositioned by an Uber driver.  And when she told her parents and they complained, their account was dropped.

Parents today are even less involved in their kids lives than ever before.  We are the laziest generation of parents ever.  [/quote]

THIS.  There is no way in hell I'm letting my under-18 y.o. kids use Uber.[/quote]

Exactly. NEVER. I take Uber myself a lot. First, you are putting your tween/young teen in a stranger's car. Yes they track it, but only AFTER something happens. Tracking the drivers can't prevent a thing.

Second, I can't believe some of the lunatics who drive me. I had one guy who drove through every red light he could find. Another one got into a road rage incident with another driver. And a few weeks ago, one guy told me he hated everything about this country. I said, "Well, hopefully not all the people!" He said, "Yes, I hate the people too."

And he meant it. He hit the wheel for emphasis.

People here need to start re-reading PROTECTING THE GIFT. Don't put a tween or young teen in a car with people you don't know.
