My stepdad, so is that other relative or non relative?

@SW-User That's something only you know how do you feel about him? If he feels like a relative he could be. :)
How are you doing

@SW-User Best way I think

@MrsKatherineArch Supposedly the majority of dad's did. I seen a poll on this earlier which is what inspired this question.

Gotcha. Yeah, my mom had absolutely no interest in teaching my brothers and I how to drive. @hami1091

My little brother...my step grandpa promised to show me how to drive, but when my brother became old enough to comprehend these things, he ended up giving him more of that kind of attention.

@SailorMarz I'm glad he was able to teach you.

My friends brother. He was 18 and we were both 14 yrs. old.

@Jimmy2016 That's pretty awesome.

@hami1091 🤔...That same summer, my two friends and I were joy riding in my friends dad's Chevy, we were all in eighth grade and we got pulled over by an off duty cop. He started yelling at us asking us what we thought we were doing. He followed us back to my friends house and watch us put the car back in the garage, then drove away. We never got in trouble for that experience. that was almost 50 years ago. lol

@Jimmy2016 Similar things happened in my small neighborhood growing up.

Myself, mostly. Literally bought a car for $250 with no idea how to drive and made my way home.
hami1091 · 41-45, F
@Sicarium My dad taught himself and my mom to drive.
Mguinm · 51-55, F
I paid a driving school because mom and friends were too nervous teaching me! Lol
hami1091 · 41-45, F
@Mguinm I think I'd be too nervous to teach my child too
Mguinm · 51-55, F
@hami1091 Understandable!

I took driver education when in school, but my dad did teach me to drive a stick shift.
hami1091 · 41-45, F
@indyjoe I took drivers Ed in school too but already knew how to drive at my school it was a requirement if you wanted to drive to school.
indyjoe · 56-60, M
@hami1091 I never drove to school....didn't even have a car to drive until after I graduated (mom and dad always used theirs).
Some school, great uncle , dad - couple of lessons. All came to the same conclusion....

@MarmeeMarch Sounds like a great team.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
I kind of taught myself. Dad put me on a tractor when I was 5 and let me go.
hami1091 · 41-45, F
@hippyjoe1955 My parents let me drive around on an old lawn mower with no blade when I was 10 surely not as impressive as a tractor at 5 :)

@hami1091 I'd sit on my dad's lap and steer when I was young. lol so illegal now, probably was then too 😂
hami1091 · 41-45, F
@SW-User I remember doing that when I was really little too, great memories. :) I actually learned to drive by myself in a field before I graduated to road a few years later.

hami1091 · 41-45, F
@deadgerbil That's cool I was taught by both of my parents too
deadgerbil · 22-25, F
@hami1091 my mom did the most of it tho. My dad kinda rushed me and had me drive on a busy street before I was 'ready' lol
hami1091 · 41-45, F
@deadgerbil Dads can be pushy.
