During Christmas Break, Camden took drivers education online through Aceable. He was only required to finish the first 6 hours of the 24 hour online course before obtaining his driver's permit, however since he was off from school and had time, he went ahead and completed the whole course. Today was the day that he was able to obtain his actual permit. So, right after school, we took ALL the required paperwork and headed to the DPS for him to obtain his permit.
For this course, over the next year, he will be required to spend 44 hours in the car learning and practicing. They divide those hours into 7 hours in-car observation time, 7 hours behind-the-wheel instruction time and 30 hours behind-the wheel. Of course, I will work to have him behind the wheel as much as I can so that he can have as much practice as possible before we let him loose when he turns 16. At this point, it will just be he and I practicing since he has zero desire to drive with his dad (who is rather feisty when he drives). Shane has little patience, so just as much as Camden doesn't want to drive with him, he doesn't want to drive with Camden. Wish us luck!
