[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 372197, member: 1514"] Nancy...I keep hoping you can somehow keep her safe from herself until she hits 23 or so. Even 22 might do it. I know I keep saying it but these kids just dont ripen until then. Really, they are making dumb choices for themselves with brains that arent fully cooked. After knowing what I know, and seeing as many 18 and 19 year olds...it is ludicrous to me that the military allows them to drive/fly/command very expensive vehicles and aircraft but they dont have the common sense to ride a lawn mower! 18 and driving a tank! I wouldnt let him drive my Yugo...lol. I know I was stupid at 18. You couldnt tell me nuthin. By 21...well...I started getting a whole lot smarter! By 24, I had to be smarter because I had 3 mouths to feed. Now that isnt the perfect way to gain intelligence but if it saves a life, well, I guess it isnt so bad. [/QUOTE]
