Teens Driving

Thinking about your teenager driving is a scary thing. Teens can be impulsive and often times they think that they are invincible. It is important that if you are allowing your teen to take your car out (or any car for that matter) that you clearly review your expectations and give them the choice to behave responsibly or lose the privilege of driving. Things to reinforce are no speeding, seatbelts at all times, being home on time, no tickets and keeping you informed of their whereabouts when out in your car. It is reasonable to expect them to call you and check in until you feel that you can trust them and they are acting responsibly. Having your teenager out driving can be one of the most stressful experiences for parents so you are not alone if you are feeling this way.
