[QUOTE="Dixies_fire, post: 590977, member: 16184"] I vote no. Several reasons If he won't help pay for it he doesn't need it. He's not being polite to you guys now a car won't change that but you might feel like he should be more polite He has his shot with a car and he blew it It will not look fair to the 17yo if you choose to so that And as for 17 yo I would only do it, after he went to college and realized "oh **** I need a job" just to say you gave him the same chance you gave difficult child. And I would cover insurance liability only if the car is paid for as long as he is in school if he drops cut off the insurance. I'm sure you have reasons for hostility towards their mom but I would not fault her for not letting them use her car as she has to deal with their difficult child mess in her way. I wouldn't let my difficult child sister drive my car to the store last time I saw her and she is 8 years older then me. [/QUOTE]
