CARS AND TEENS: ARE YOU SURE YOU WANT TO MIX THEM?
If you browse the web in search of a gift for your high school grad, you will find a large number of practical, fun, and memory-inspiring gifts: MP3 players, personalized pens, computers, watches, money for college, maybe even a trip to some exotic weird place. But there’s one gift that beats all the others: the keys to his or her very own car.
There are few things in the whole world that symbolize freedom to a young person more than a car. The ability to go wherever, whenever they want can change a youngster’s way of seeing the world. And the thought of buying a car for a high school teen can be just as sobering.
OK, time for some reality check. Giving your kid a car will bring up a whole new set of travails: gas, maintenance, insurance, and possibly a fender bender or two. Have I mentioned insurance? The cost of an automobile insurance policy tends to be higher, when the driver is young.
Deciding whether or not to equip their kids with their own wheels is a disturbing point for many parents, and with good reason.
Your teen may not yet have an established driving record. In this case, you might want to wait a little longer. Young drivers, specially those less than 21 years old, have accident rates that are abysmal. Especially if they are male.
Being able to afford a car for your teen doesn’t necessarily mean you should go out and do it. You might want to ask yourself a few questions before handing over the keys of a rolling weapon:
Does your kid really need a car?
Is your kid a responsible young adult?
Wouldn’t it be better for your kid to earn the car rather than just have it?
Should you buy a used car or a new one?
How necessary is it for your kid to have a car?
Does your kid need the car to get to school, college or work?
Has your kid established a good driving record?
Who will pay for car insurance, gasoline, and maintenance? Is all that affordable?
