[QUOTE="Howdyjabo, post: 536298, member: 391"] Hubby wouldn't let the kids near the tractors till they mastered the old truck out in the pasture. His dad had bolted blocks on the pedals for him- and the holes were still there so he put the blocks back on so they could reach them. Gave them a short lesson- then told them not to come home till they could take off coming up the big hill--- at the bottom of the big hill was a ditch.It was a LONG walk home if they got stuck in the ditch. We only had to pull them out of the ditch once each :) I think the best way to learn is to be all by yourself with no repercussions for whatever happens. It made the kids much more confident drivers than the way I learned-- I learned driving my new car home thru the city- I still have nightmares of that LONG,slow embarrassing ride and my first accident rolling back into a car on a hill :(. BTW it was a VW bug with the Rolls Royce package and a sun roof--- my pride and joy. [/QUOTE]
