[QUOTE="DaisyFace, post: 377670, member: 6546"] Linda-- In my state, a child can get their learner's permit at 15. Many of difficult child's friends already have their permits. We told difficult child that any driving priviledge comes with the responsibilty for driving expenses. Period. After figuring out that this means she will need to get some kind of regular job...difficult child has decided that she is not interested in learning how to drive. Fine by me. But, I would say that the same could hold true for your daughter. If she is responsible enough to hold down a job, and earn gas money, insurance costs plus put some money in savings toward the purchase of a vehicle...then there is no reason she shouldn't be able to learn to drive. I would not make it a priviledge you hand to her. Let her earn it herself. Hope this helps! [/QUOTE]
