Beginner Driver in The House
Bobbie is actually doing really well with her driving lessons. I see her improve each time we go driving. I’d be lying if I didn’t say I wasn’t nervous. I just try not to show it and correct her in a calm, matter of fact voice. That’s how my mom, dad and uncle (he took me out driving a stick shift!) were with me. I am proud of Bobbie’s developing driving skills and the fact she takes is seriously and cautiously. She’s got a pretty good head on her shoulders, which should make her a good driver.
Have you taught your children to drive? If so, how did you feel about the whole experience?
I’m so not ready for this! I only have 5 yrs before Gabe starts learning. EEK!
Our daughter is 18 and still hasn’t learned how to drive. When she does she’s going to driving school, I don’t have the patience to teach her how to drive!
It’s hard to keep a cool, calm manner when you’re freaking out on the inside. Kudos to you!
My kids are a ways off from driving. I am dreading it. Their father is going to have to teach them.
My son has 5 years before he will start driving and he already tole me he wanted me to teach him. I’m not sure I can be/stay calm enough or not. :/
I don’t have any kids so I cant say from a parent point of view. I was so nervous and excited when I first started to learn to drive!!
Not really looking forward to that day. I’m definitely going to be nervous when my children get old enough to learn how to drive.
My oldest just turned 10, so we have a few years before driving is an issue, but I can tell you now it will definitely be my husband who teaches our children.
We aren’t there yet, but I am sort of dreading those days. I remember learning to drive myself & how much I stressed my parents.
I will admit that I was really nervous and that was a long time ago. I’d be scared to death these days with all the traffic and worrying about careless drivers.
It really really worries me that my oldest just turned 14 and can get his permit next year. I don’t think he is anywhere near ready for being on the road.
