new drivers
Man am I nervous today my kids got their license today. Their cars are not ready to drive yet so I got them a couple of 90's SW chevy trucks to drive while we are working on the cars. I almost fell over how much insurance cost for two 16 year old males cost. We are getting a good grade discount and I could buy myself a nice new car for just the insurance costs. I guess you have got to let em fly. But I probably will not sleep well when they are out. Man I just remember me driving (69 charger 440 6 pack) I must have given my parents many a sleepless night.

I remember the day very clearly when my son who is now 21 got his liscense. I read him the right act about having anyone in the car with him, street racing or letting anyone drive the car. If he did something I never caught him, good luck!!!

That is why with the responsiblity of a teenager being a driver comes the responsiblity of paying their own insurance. Figure out the difference with them off the insurance and that is what they pay you. Time for a part time job little ones. It is a princple to me that if you drive you pay.

A partime job is out of the question for them. There is no way to keep up the grades and give the time required to keep their baseball skills at the level need to stay at the top of their baseball club. They now play on an eighteen year old team. Both pitch and play a position. they are now 6'3" 215 throw in the upper 80's. We feel that at this time in their life with baseball scholarships highly likely to happen as we have already had college scouts asking about them. They cannot talk to them until they are juniors but the have been talking to our club manager about them. So I feel that they are playing for money now in all reality. All the hard work is about to pay off in a couple of years. Now they will get to drive themselves to some practices and lessons.
