Teenage Wanna-Be Driver

It's a funny thing when your kid (at fourteen...WAY too early) is announcing quite frequently that he's ready to start drivers ed and feels that he is quite prepared and able to drive.  Funny strange, that is.  You see I can't help but look at a few things I've noticed lately.

Like...

• Is the inability to remember entire limbs of one's body when applying sunscreen a good indicator of future driving performance?

• Is the inability to follow through with a cleaning task (of any kind) without multiple gentle reminders nags a good indicator of future driving performance?

• Is the inability to turn in homework when it's actually been completed a good indicator of future driving performance?

• Is the inability to wake up to a blaring malfunctioning house alarm a good indicator of future driving performance?

I just dunno...I say be patient, my lovely, wonderful, and amazing kiddo, and wait till you're sixteen like the rest of us.


Now, if it's true that video game dedication and playing ability is a good indicator of future driving performance, the kid's got it made.

Thanks for "liking" my blog posts!!
