Started driving and plumbing when I was 9. My older brother was a plumber and he would take us out to these large sub-divisions that were under construction. He would get out and install the rough-in plumbing and we would go a few block away and set toilet, sinks and faucets. He had a Chevy van with parts bins and the van had a 3 on the tree stick. By the time we got to the block we were going to I have all of the parts bins empty jumping that thing down the road. By 7th grade my dad would let me drive his Eldorado to school and then I would jump out and he would go to work.

Today I have 17 yr old step son who I won’t even allow near my truck or car. He shows no responsibility in anything he does and nor has the attention span to let him focus on a 2 ton car driving down the road at 70mph. I have only let him drive in the pasture a couple of times and even that is a chore. I try to tell him to adjust his seat to the right position and he just ignores that as if its a big joke. I’m 6’2” and he’s 5’7” and he starts arguing that he can reach the peddles. Then I drag him out and make him ride in the back.

Hmmm.. I believe in most states that will get you a ticket and probably child endangerment amidst a plethora of other charges.

Ain’t progress wonderful????

If PROgress is moving forward
What does
CONgress indicate????
