At what point did you (or will you) STOP driving your teen around?
My oldest is about to turn 17. He’s not showing any signs of actually getting his license and I’ve been thinking about cutting him off for rides to encourage him to get around on his own, be it in his own car or transit.
I’m often left driving 5 of his friends too.
The upside is that I know where he is and he is (obviously/hopefully) safe with me. The downside is that I am really tired of being a chauffeur.
I would still drive in situations that were extenuating.
At what age did you cut your child off?
