“What are those idiot parents thinking?”

I agree with you 100%. You are correct. The parents are at fault. Maybe she will be lucky if she gets a job working at Hooters...if she lives that long or isn’t raped along the way.

Tragically, it is too late to set values on her at this point. She is what she is now. A total waste to mankind and her country.

Another human loss that could have been productive.

On the other hand, it makes me nervous seeing children driving death machines at 16 years of age.

We live in a hilly area and one major route goes across the hills and is very windy and hilly. It’s a treacherous road and I hate even crossing it.

Every couple years 2-3 16 year olds lose their lives on this stretch of road in horrendous accidents. For one carful of girls, it was on the driver’s 16th birthday as they were heading to school and she pulled out right in front of a tractor trailer going the speed limit (55). No one knows why she took the chance; whether she didn’t see the truck, or thought she could beat it out, or just didn’t look before pulling out.

Kids that age just do not have the experience in either life or driving, to be allowed that kind of responsibility.

My kids will all be at least 18 before I allow them to take their road test. I’ve come right out and told them that driving them is not that big an inconvenience and I’d rather drive them than bury them.
