My son is taking Drivers’ Ed this summer and very much looking forward to being able to drive. (How that happened in the blink of any eye is the subject for another blog. He was just in nursery school yesterday. I promise.)

In our family, my husband is the driving instructor. He is really good at it, both of my children report.

As for me, I picked my son up from class the other day and he asked to drive home. My response, “Not yet, that’s your father’s job.”

Different than my husband apparently, I have concluded that the muscle memory of driving really interferes with my ability to teach the skill. I know how to drive but I don’t think I could explain the details.

Have you ever taught anyone to drive?
