Experts say the best car for your kid (or anyone for that matter) HAS to have ESC.

Wrong. The best method is to teach your kids how to drive correctly in the first place. ABS, ESC, automatic braking all teach bad habits, and when someone who is used to these items gets into a car without them, they'll be worse off than if they never had them to begin with.

Unless your kids are into vintage iron, how likely is that?

Really? You advocate teaching your kids how’s to drive a 1974 Dodge first? So that later if they have to drive that Dodge again they’ll know how?

I learned to drive in the 70’s. But I never learned how to drive a Model A. Never had to. Am I worse off as a driver?

Teach your kids how to drive a modern car. Later if they want to drive an antique without airbags, seatbelts, ESC, etc. Then fine. Let them learn.
