Well, I’ve now had the traditional dad’s rite of passage… I took my daughter out to practice driving today. She cut a right turn a little close, and the bumper went over the curbing. Backing away gently, the plastic holding that corner of the bumper to the car popped. My right front bumper is now dragging a bit.
On the minus side, the car will go to the body shop this week, and hopefully the repair won’t be too bad. On the plus side, I didn’t get angry, no sheet metal was bent, and no one elses car was damaged. I guess this goes with the territory of teaching a teen to drive.
