Guest guest Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 Ingrid, my son could drive my car and an ATV around our property pretty good, of course he wasnt old enough to legally go on the road, but his father let him drive his pickup down our back road a few times. At the time I didnt think that was setting a very good example as far as obeying laws and when asked to drive my car down the back road to our house one day I didnt let him. A couple of months later he died and I regretted so badly not letting him drive my car on the road, I never got to be with him when he did that and of course he didnt get to do it. He'd just turn 14, where we lived they could get a learner's permit at 15 and only drive with a licensed driver. So it wasnt far off. But had been riding ATV's for years and he was a very safe driver. I think kids learn these things pretty easily, they are so skilled when they are young. Look how they learn to play Nintendo and Playstation games, I could never do it like he did. I used to watch his hands in amazement when he was real little. I did worry about the time not so far off, when he'd drive off on his own and I'd be worrying until he got home, but as far as his ability, he was great. Can your son start on your property, just backing up, turning the car around, driving to the barn and back, things like that? That's how learned. ~~Dianna Ingrid Lowe lowenco@...> wrote: How does one deal with being in the passenger seat while your child has the steering wheel and brakes in his control?? Scary!!!

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 Wow, Ingrid...I'm putting you on my list of " places to visit " ...would love to see the River and the waterfalls. I bet it's beautiful. I can't even imagine there are still places in this world where you can actually leave your doors unlocked....that is just so awesome!!! When I was young, we never locked our doors...not even at night. That was the Stone Age, tho....LOL I'd say, in my humble opinion, you are right on target with the amount of trust you have in your son. With each new responsibility he is given (IF he comes home on time...LOL) he will grow and mature at the rate he's suppose to with his loving parents guidance... Did you say a pet " wolf " ????

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 That's exactly what I mean Ingrid, if he's responsible, it'll be ok. And he sounds very responsible. I told once that when he began to drive I was going to trust him because he was always so careful on his ATV and we also had a watercraft and boat. I told him I wasn't going to worry until he gave me reason to do so. (yeah right) He was riding with me in the car and he was quiet for a moment, then he told me he really appreciated me telling him that. ~Dianna Ingrid Lowe lowenco@...> wrote:Nonnie, Around here the farm kids do drive at 13 and younger.

Guest guest Posted July 27, 2005 Report Share Posted July 27, 2005 Ingrid, you are so right, I see kids everywhere that aren't appreciated, I wonder what's wrong with their parents. I treasured from day one, felt I was the luckiest person in the world. I can tell you feel the same way about your son, just from what you say and how you think about him. I think we were about the same age when they were born, I turned 37 a month after he was born, I waited a long time for him. He was my world. I was the lucky one.

I drive a dually truck. And they are harder to drive. They do not have a very good turning. It takes a big spot to turn one around since they cannot turn in small spots. I think I will do that once my ribs feel better. I would just love for him to feel special that he is learning to drive a car. Yes, Each day we have together is precious. So you are right. Now is the time to spend with our loved ones. Your son is looking down at you and knows that you love him dearly. He was so precious to you and he knows that.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 We not only leave our doors unlocked, we leave the keys in the door. We have a dog that jumps on the door when we come home, and he is prone to lock us out. Also, there are 3 vehicles sitting in the driveway right now with keys in them. Small town tattletales do help in raising teenagers. Makes them furious at times though. A piece of advise, a cell phone is worth every penny. I believe I might have gone crazy (crazier) when mine started going out without me. It wasn't necessarily the driving that freaked me out, it was them going places with no adult. They are now 22 and 24 so I did survive it. The 24 year old bought a house and moved out in May. It's only 4 miles away , so I tell him its not like he's moved. It is more like I have 2 houses to keep. However, he is doing better at cleaning and laundry than I thought he would. Get a cell phone, it will save you a lot of worry.

Guest guest Posted July 28, 2005 Report Share Posted July 28, 2005 I don't know these things just don't bother me anymore I trust my son Dan who is 18 and even let him stay here while we were on vacation. The house was not destroyed he didn't hold parties and he was very pleasant when we returned. Other then letting me know where he is going I just don't worry. He doesn't betray that trust. He knows that if he does I'll tighten the noose but with him off to college in 4 weeks it is time to let my baby go. Narice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
