[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At the risk of sounding sexist, is your child a boy or girl? I say this because I have a very mature 14 year old boy who looks like he’s 16 and he rides Uber teen in the day ( we haven’t done it at night yet). But there’s no way I’d let my more immature daughter who is 13, but looks 11, in a car with a stranger. The odds of getting sexually abused or anything going wrong would be higher in her case. [/quote] It’s not sexist. I’m a PP and said I let my son take it in middle school. He was big at 13 and now at 15 he's taller and bigger than DH. He looks like a grown man. I wouldn’t feel comfortable with my tiny 5’2 daughter alone in an Uber. [/quote] This is not sexist. My 14yo is 5’8” and taller than me (mom). I just started letting him take an Uber. I have 3 kids. I’m not a single mom but Dh has a demanding job. I am often solo and with 3 kids who have to be at different places. When my youngest was younger, I had a sitter stay home with youngest while I drove older kids. Now my kids are old enough that I can leave my youngest with my middle or oldest child while I drive other kid. My 14yo only recently started having activities ending so late in high school. Previously everything ended at a decent time. If your kid regularly ends at 10pm, this schedule does not work for your family. Ask your ex to help drive, get a sitter or carpool.[/quote] There is no reason why you or your husband cannot pick up your kids or get a sitter.[/quote]
