Paul,

My daughter is also 16 and driving so I hope I am somewhat 'qualified' to chime in.

You should remember that she is a minor and YOU, as a parent, are responsible for HER actions. I hope these "dents" are not a harbinger.

If it were my daughter (or son, for that matter) the car would be gone. Period.

I understand that it works for getting to her Mom's, to you, and to other neccessary functions, but I kind of think she needs some skill enhancement at this point.

The inconvenience of driving her around pales in comparison to having something really serious happen.

Good luck, my Man!
