Ever let your teen who was raised in the suburbs drive to the city?
[i][c=BF0080]My dad said, “you learned to drive that big truck with your permit alone here, she’ll be fine.” Me: “She’ll freak once she’s on 95, even with me.”
Daughter trying to merge on 95 freaked out and at a complete stop:
Me: (Screams) Get aggressive!!
Her: (After finally getting aggressive and on the road) “Why are these people so mean?”
Then she waves everyone to get in front of her on another highway so they don’t feel like she did till she saw this guy(right not in a lane) later 😂 “What’s wrong with these people today?!”
My poor child. I said I’m sorry I yelled at you before, but I didn’t think you would’ve moved. She agreed and said she doesn’t ever wanna drive to the Bronx again 🤣 She will with me though till she’s comfortable enough to do it on her own. [/c][/i]

I understand her. I’ve been driving for a few years now and I still wonder why are people so mean 😭. I think merging is one of the most difficult things for people who are learning how to drive, and that she could do it without crashing says she will be a good driver, have patience with her 💜
@deadteddy [i][c=BF0080]Awh 🥺 I def understand. I just know her and if I didn’t push her to go, she wouldn’t had. That was the only time I yelled, but not outta no patience, I didn’t want us to get hit. They fly in that spot. [/c][/i]
@MellyMel22 [quote]That was the only time I yelled, but not outta no patience, I didn’t want us to get hit. [/quote] In that situation it was definitely the right thing to do.
@deadteddy [i][c=BF0080]That highway in that area is bad. She thought I was exaggerating warning her and asking if she was sure she wanted to drive there. [/c][/i]
