Congratulations, how old is he?

This weekend, my six year old daughter will be experiencing a major rite of passage - on dad’s lap driving around the local cemetery.

I think that was one of my most exciting days of my life for many, many years. That is taking the test, not taking my son to take his test.

The prayers will need to be sent AFTER he passes the test...

What state are you in? Is it within a day's drive of MN?

Looks like he's here in NC, which can now be called the state of chaos.

Are you kidding or serious? Seems a shame to have so little faith in the newly licensed. Could it be because our DE curriculum is still living in the 1950's? If you are seriously concerned then why take him for the test? There's no law saying he HAS to get a license? What's wrong with a little more time behind the wheel with you to show him the way?
BTW, DE teacher here.
Good luck regardless. Hope he's driving something manageable.

It may just be me, but I sensed a little sarcasm in the OPs post.

Yes I was kidding, he is 18 and as far as driving something manageable he and his sister will be sharing a 05 t&c van

I wrecked my mother's car on the way home from the DMV after getting my license.

Oh wait...I guess you didn't need to hear that!

This morning I got a whole speil about how since he has his license now he should be able to take the van to a weekend long music festival so him amd a couple of his friends can sleep in it and dont have to leave the festival. I laughed my butt off
