  • Rules of the road, safe driving habits and passenger rules
  • What happens when a rule is broken, and how to disagree respectfully
  • Job, school and cost-sharing expectations
  • A fill-in page for your family's curfew, gas share and review date

Why we write it down

With our oldest we just talked things through as they came up. With our next teen drivers we wrote it all down first. The difference was immediate: less confusion, fewer arguments, and teens who understood that driving is a privilege and a responsibility.

It is a conversation starter, not a legal contract. Change anything that does not fit your family.

We are not perfect. We are a family of nine trying to live intentionally, one ordinary day at a time.
