Hi Bob,
I am so sorry for your TEEN PROBLEMS. Thankfully he is still alive to someday express his regrets to you and your spouse.
We raised 4 sons and a daughter. My oldest son also smashed and totaled my wife's restored 65 Mustang but he walked away unhurt. Right then and there we made up our minds that our kids would no longer drive our vehicles after they got their license. If they wanted to drive they were to get a job and purchase their own car and insurance In this way we would not be liable for any damage to people or property caused by their carelessness. This decision saved us because 3 out of my 4 sons crashed their cars causing both property and personal damge to others as well as to themselves. Fortunately none of these were fatal.
Hang in there, there is light at the end of the tunnel and hopefully your son will be there too.
Best wishes.
Strippedgear,aka, Bob
