How did you teach your child to drive and at what age?

My kids were only in the 5 and 6th grade when i taught them. At that time we were living in Oregon and the roads are dirt... nothing really around.. just long *** roads...... that go on for ever an ever.

Well, I had a stick shift. That was fun.

OK put Daughter in seat, God help me? NO>> get daughter out of car.. **** in the trunk you are never driving again...... it was a hatch back open window people.........

OK put Son in seat. OK this is not bad... O my God watch out for that bump.... as i hit my head on the Roof as he pushes the gas peddle faster... SLOW THE HELL DOWN OR I WILLLLLLLLL////???????ejkjoiejroiwej

ok take Son out of car strap him to the hood.. JOKING>>>> i can dream cant I...

Next try.. Next day... lets try this again... OK SON HITS TREE BACKWARDS... That is what I get for telling him i was a pro at reverse driving.

next try.. Daughter hits dip as the brakes slame up into the window... OOOWWWWOOOOOOOOWWWWW child.

As I am screaming at this time..... What the heck is wrong with you kids..

When my mother taught me i was only 12yrs old, she put me in her Saber tooth checkered green Maverick....in Palm Spring, it was a Auto matic. No sweat! I drove like a pro..... how ever the other girl who was 3 yrs old.. Lets say Lisa should never get her license. EVER.. down in the ditch we go.. up the bank, on the other side of the rode.. Gee my mom had NERVES OF STEEL......

oK last of least it took for ever to teach my kids. 2001, kids 18 and 19teen. they did not want to drive at 15 and 16 they said they were not ready and did not feel kids at this age are responsible enough to have this much stress on them>> LLOOOLLL

So i hired.... out side hlep for $198.00 for 3 classes so my kids could get driver licenses... LOL..

OO did i mention with in a few months my daughter crashed my car, then my son crashed my next car, and then my daughter, then my son. and Now they own there own cars.... then my daughter then my son... ****..........my insurance is 4k a year... point made.

The end. God help me with my grandchild who is only 3.. hee hee hee

I had to teach them but they took lessons in the high school. I had a hard time teaching the youngest to park My neighbor had to come and assist. LOL To this day my youngest still turns corner in a square LOL... and she is 26 : )

i haven't had that experience yet as my daughter is only 5. i cringe at the way she rip and roars in her barbie jeep. pedal to the metal. i'm sure when the time comes to teach her i'll have my fair share of white hairs. scared

The eldest boy was rifing motorbikes at 6, horses bareback at 6 and driving the farm ute at 9...


who taught him?

he did.

When it came to road rules and licensed driving...I had to sit beside him until he got his P plates...


I laughed myself silly....I was THAT scared....every time..
