How do I convince my mother to let me take drivers ed this summer?

Question

I'm 16 years old and ever since I was 12 and my daddy promised to buy me a car once I turned 16 it's been my DREAM to learn how to drive. Well on another note my daddy is going through on his promise to buy me any car I want and I chose a 2006 Honda Civic, but the only thing is I can't drive it unless I have some authorization from the TDT (Texas Department of Transportation) there are plenty of Driving schools where I live, but she's not seeing reason why I should learn to drive right now. I'm going to start working this summer as well. How can I convince her that learning to drive and getting my 6 month permit and then License would probably be the best thing for me?

Answer 1

She's probably just worried about you.  After two kids died within three weeks of each other my senior year I promised myself never to let my kids drive until they were 18.  It won't hurt to wait

Answer 2

drive illegally

Answer 3

Tell them that the sooner you start to learn to drive the easier it will be to learn, the younger you are the easier you lern , that is a fact,

Answer 4

threaten her
