Minor panick attack...I'm fine now.

Okay....not really fine. But I'm working on it.
Our state is actually pretty strict about teen drivers so that makes me feel a little better. Just to get her learner's permit she has to pass a written test and provide two signed affidavits. One from a parent and one from her school stating that she's enrolled and making satisfactory proggress. If she drops out of school or fails a certain number of classes then the school can contact DOL and have her license revoked until she turns 18 and reapplies. (That won't happen for her of course.)
I think I'm just going to have to delegate all driving instruction responsibility to Rick.
