As far as I'm concerned, family members probably shouldn't try to teach other family members a whole lot -- this includes driving. It seems that it's easier to teach someone something when they aren't related, as they're distanced from you and more often than not, you just don't care as much. When they're related (by marriage or blood), you want them to do well, so when they mess up (and they will at some point), you end up taking it too personally and sometimes lash out at the very person you were trying to help in the first place.

I've been on both sides of the fence. I remember when my Dad tried helping me with math back in elementary school, junior high and high school. In those dark days of mandatory education, I was not the best nor the brightest when it came to algebra or geometry. When I didn't understand what he was trying to teach me or assist me with, he became frustrated and angry. It wasn't unusual for us to get into shouting matches. As I grew older, math got much easier for me (I suppose I was just a late bloomer in that area), but I'm still a little fuzzy on calculus. Anyway, the point is that although my Dad was originally trying to help me out, he couldn't do it effectively -- not because he wasn't good at math, but because he was too close to the pupil he was teaching. He couldn't distance himself enough and remain objective.

Peace to All creatures great and small............................................

But when we turn to the Hebrew literature, we do not find such jokes about the donkey. Rather the animal is known for its strength and its loyalty to its master (Genesis 49:14; Numbers 22:30).

Everyone stay off the sidewalks in Peoria! ;)

Gary, Luz, when I learned to drive, my dad taught me the initial basics in a wide church parking lot for about a month before I was permitted to go on the road.

at least she didn't run the nose of it into the curb :whistle:

it's pretty annoying that you keep mentioning this ####### over and over again and I have to explain myself over and over.

I've been driving since I was 14. I've never ran a car into the curb. It was the second time I drove the Camaro. I never parked a car into a diagonal curb before cuz there's no such thing in Brazil. I wasn't used to the fu**ing car and I didn't know it was pointy and super long in the front.

Give me a fu**ing break and quit giving me a hard time about it.
