Driving The Freeway !

My hubby is soooo brave. Our 16 year old starts drivers ed tomorrow and he got his permit last week. Bill took Will out driving and even let him drive the freeway... YIKES ! I drove with him through town but thats enough for me for now. I have learned by listening to Will that he is nervous about driving to close to his school because there is a group of teenage boys that always try showing off behing the wheel and he is afraid to be driving anywhere near them. I think this is good, I know he is going to be cautious. I'm a chicken and it looks like I passed that on to my son... even as a baby he was cautious, never wanted to even try to climb out of his crib, never climbed on furniture, never ran off when we were outside, he was born scared of things. He always hated loud noises, would freak out in grade school over the fire alarm when they had fire drills. He was 9 before he could sit in the Kingdome and watch baseball. I remember him at 1 year freaking out because we wanted to go to our local carnival. As soon as we got him out of the van and he heard people screaming on the rides he started crying. We took him to Disneyland at 9 months and he hated the noise there too. He finally grew out of this scared of noise thing when he was about 8 or 9 thank god. Will's younger brother didn't have this problem thank goodness. The Drs just told me that his ears were sensitive. Now my baby is driving but is nervous about the other drivers, this may be a good thing.
