Well N3 is calling me back. I just laid it all out on the table telling him that I'm scared for him and as his mother! He wants to take his 17 yo girlfriend to Chicago this weekend. I am very scared for him driving that far when he's a new driver and the fact that Chicago has one of the highest murder rates in the US! I told him he should go up North to Frankenmuth - it's much safer and they have famous chicken dinners and a HUGE Xmas shop called Brauners. . I can't see what I'm typing so I'm gonna press send. I'm a worried mother!
