My little sister couldn't wait to get behind the wheel. I get made fun of for this frequently. What people don't realize is that anxiety among my generation is very high. I have panic attacks when trying to drive. The idea that driving is fun sounds nutts to me. It's no longer fun, it's horrifying. I am almost 18, and I have no interest in driving.

He has a learner's permit. He agrees with Jenny's comment about the safety issue. Drivers in Las Vegas are totally wack. When we first moved here from California, I noticed two things: how many people smoked cigarettes, and how rude the drivers are in Las Vegas (for example, DO NOT expect another driver to "let you in" just because your blinker is flashing. I do see the logic in my son's view, but it is also crazy to me since I could not wait to have my license as soon as I was 16. I think he knows he will have to pay for the insurance and the economy is so terrible nowadays that the kids just do not have the kind of hope they ought to have in a normal society. He would rather ride a bike, get the exercise, and save the money. My son is 20. He has a learner’s permit. He agrees with Jenny’s comment about the safety issue.

He does not want a car either! I am literally dumbfounded by this. It feels like it will come down to forcing him as well. Like you, I had my permit when 16 and in line at the DMV on my 17 birthday. Everyone I grew up with was the same. You went on your 17 Bday. It was one of the greatest days in my young life. I simply do not get it. Ann,

Your cats are so interesting. People say we humanize out pets, but I believe its the other way around. Keep up the stories. I love animal Wednesdays. Your cats are so interesting.

With your attitude, you will be a safe driver. You know the risk and the potential danger. It is the driver on the road (teen or otherwise) who does not take driving seriously that end up creating accidents. Just keep your eyes open for other drivers and you will develop an intuition about who to stay away from and what sudden moves to anticipate from another driver. Good luck and good driving.

It's not that I don't know where I'd be going, because I do look out the window when my parents drive and do know the way around. I just don't think it is one bit safe! Look at the newspapers-look at internet articles! Driving is the number one cause of death in teens! To me, it sounds about as fun to drive as it would be to hold a gun to my head and hope it doesn't go off when I pull the trigger!

EFT is very effective in neutralizing any form of "negative" emotions. Meridian tapping techniques have come a long way since 1983.

I hope those who "want" to learn the cure for cancer, or ways to sustain life with out kiling our planet achieve their wants. Happy Birthday!!

Chronically negative people are very draining! "Mindful Happiness" sounds like a great group. I agree with you . . . "Let's stay positive!" Have a fabulous day! This is SO true, Ann.

They had copy privileges when they were bought. Is anyone willing to part with a copy for a reasonable sum? Cheri mymom51@yahoo.com These DVDs were sold out so fast that very few were to be had.
