LOL MomStar!!!!!
But I agree... make her wait. If she is going to have that many accidents in just a short time, then maybe she's not ready to be a responsible and attentive driver.
I'm just a mean mom that way.

Aren't teens fun! They make you understand why some animals eat their young! I wouldn't fork out any more money for a car for her. She needs to be able to pay for the deductible AND her insurance. That way she will appreciate it more. Funny how much more responsible or conscientious you become when YOU are the one forking out the money.
I had to pay for driver's ed, my first car and insurance. It made me alot more responsible at an early age. I was 15 when I got my hardship and started driving.
Don't let her Dad push you around. If he isn't helping out with the expenses who cares what he thinks!

I think she needs to earn the car now.

Nope, I wouldn't buy another car.
Thank you everyone....I agree she should wait,
My older 2 kids have worked since they were 16 & 14.5. We helped them buy their first car, but my dd (19) has just bought her second herself (she's at Uni & has a part time job).
