a girl in my daughter s class recently got her driver s license. i dont know how as she is classified mildly retarded. anyway she has a car and her and another girl from the class -also mildly MR --have been driving around together. today i saw them at the store. i think B. os way too immature to have a license and i told my dughter she is not to get in the car when she is driving. of course my daughter wants to be one of the gan and ride with her friens. anyway i can convince her it is not safe would be welcome. this girl is an acident waiting to happen in my opinion even if she wasn t mr
 
Hello:

You are your childs parent - - not her buddy.

Sometimes that means being the "bad" guy. You need to tell her how it is "in that tone".

Her life is too important to "dance around about being firm" regarding this.

I have yet to have this type of problem with my teenagers cause when "I use that tone" they know its final. And I'm not wishy-washy. I stick with my decisions.
