I'm at home goods the other day because I needed a basket for dog toys and I ran into Kathy

Tatum's mom and we were talking about our daughters having just gotten driver's license

which is so nerve-wracking. And we were talking about how hard it was

to teach them to drive and everything we're going through in their process of learning

to drive and being independent and breaking rules and pushing boundaries and I said

we should podcast about this because there are so many people who are either doing this now or just

finish this or will be doing this in the future. So I think we had a pretty good chat about teaching our girls to drive,

about going to the DMV and getting tests,

and failing the test, and about what they're driving and what boundaries they're

pushing and what they're trying to get away with and she has this great idea

that she's going to do a driving contract with Tatum so the rules are in black and white and if she ever breaks the rules,

she knows the consequence because it's in black and white. I think that's brilliant. We talked about, you know, my dad

came and taught my Girl Scout troop a lot about cars and how

valuable that was and how I think everybody should do that with their kids but

I thought was a good chat about teaching a teenager how to drive.

My hair is way greyer, as you can see in my roots, way greyer from teaching this 16 year old.

Who knows everything but it was good to talk to someone else who

had the same experience because it is a shared experience everybody has a

hard time teaching their teenager how to drive.

That's nothing special. So I hope you enjoy this episode. I've had so many people ask

me about books on my website that I now think my website is confusing.

So I'm going to try to rework my website, but the book I mentioned on Two Bears One Cave is on the Food for Thought tab. Strong at the Burr Broken Places, which I mentioned
