Driving with a 15 year old

Emerson has his learners permit and needs driving practice soooooo,
today I took him out and let him drive. This was his first time driving outside a parking lot.

We went on the frontage road behind Home Depot. I only screamed and tried to push the brake on my side once. Okay, maybe several times. GOSH! Why does it have to be so hard. I thought he had paid attention to driving rules and regulations all these years of being a passenger. Not!!!

I haven't told him this but he need LOTS and LOTS of practice before May when he turns 16, but I can't take him out again until I am over the post traumatic stress syndrome I am going through tonight.

If I was there I'd take him out for you. In fact, I thought about letting him drive himself to school that day I took him but was afraid you'd kill me.
I think it should be a rule that parents can't teach their own kids how to drive.


P.S. your pictures are small because you're posting them all on your sidebar. If you want them bigger put them directly in your posts.

You know what, we survived and thats all that matters. No one got killed, except i wanted to kill you for screaming in my ear the whole time.
