If Utah still has Driver's Ed in high school, then there is no excuse not to have your license at 16.

What's with so many teenagers not being excited to get their drivers license?

The need for a car has gone way down. That's the main reason it seems.

This. Online gaming didn't exist for me as a kid.

They can travel the world and visit their friends, via phone, from their room.

It’s a “failure to launch.” I believe the problem lies at home.

Hmm... doesn't seem to be an issue where I live. Utah is weird I guess.

OP is almost a direct quote from my dad in 1974 as he compared my 16-yr old buddies to his 16 yr-old buddies in 1955

You have a fantastic memory!

I took it as a challenge/insult... and those things kinda stick

So you had 16 yr old buddies with no interest in getting a license???

5.5 hour football practices every day?!?! Sounds like some horrible coaching.

School started today and I may get involved if something doesn't change

Belboz

Are they hitting in both practices? As a QB, he should be protected from most of

Belboz wrote that his son is an RB, which means he's likely taking a lot of hits

starting scout team RB for varsity defense to pound.

Belboz

My bad. For some reason I read that as QB.

crack

8/17/22 11:44am

Brutal, just like you said. I can't believe the coaches want(ed) him to go to...

PoolBoy

8/17/22 11:25am

I'm starting to lean toward wishing he didn't even play

Belboz

8/17/22 11:43am

Isn't it crazy how much fun it is to watch your kids play and have fun.

Noooooo way. Pick a team. That's way too much potential for injuries. 1-He's

When I was a teenager, Driver's Ed was offered as a class in school.

Are you in Utah? If so I had no idea that Driver's Ed isn't a class in schools

Online gaming doesn't require a driver's license.

Teens live their lives on their phones. They don't need to physically travel to socialize.

All the kids in my neighborhood are excited and getting their licenses at 16.
