HUH????? I commented that I hated the sheltered life that not driving causes even for the kids of someone who doesn't drive......It's important to KNOW how to drive. Limiting one's life by not driving is not a good thing because in most places public transportation is horrible & it doesn't get one to the places in a timely way in the first place.
I resented my mother for not driving & being totally dependent on everyone else & being totally stuck when there was no one there for her to depend on when my dad was working. That was why it was so important for me to learn how to drive as young as I could learn because I didn't want to be anything like my mother. Driving = Freedom & independence.
