H...I almost agree with the commentator you mention. However, how do you trust anyone to drive, if they've never done it before? There is always going to be the new driver syndrome. Maybe this key is a good way to help parents keep their "new drivers" in check. That way it forces kids not to be blithering volume blasting, speed crazy, idiots.<BR/><BR/>However, I also think there might be some deepseated trust issues coming from this. At some point you have to let go, and you have to trust your kid to do the right thing. They won't always do it, but you have to give them the chance. You can't keep them tagged for the rest of their life with technology that works like an ankle cuff.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
