Will you Buy your Kid their First Vehicle?

I don't think I will, even if i had the money to do it. Simple reason is that my Dad said for my 16th Birthday he would give me $500 dollars to buy a car (i'm 20 now). So i looked and after haggling a guy i got a 1991 Ford Explorer XLS for $500. After that i got a job, paid for the insurance and all the modifications. I changed the oil, paid my cell bill, rotated the tires. Paid for all the maintence, same for my sister (even tho she got $750 dollars, i guess she was better at haggling than i was lol :p)



-My point being that i learned how to be responsible when i had to Pay for everything ( i paid my dad back for the car), i even started working when i was 12... on a farm but HEY, its a job.



-SO will you buy them a car if you can clearly afford a nicer one...



Dont let them get an explorer pls... :)Will you Buy your Kid their First Vehicle?I doubt it i'd rather my children work and save to buy there own, but i would pay for driving lesson'sWill you Buy your Kid their First Vehicle?I get my mom's car and she gets a new one. She has a 94 Honda Accord...Will you Buy your Kid their First Vehicle?I'm not going to have any kids.Will you Buy your Kid their First Vehicle?well, im not a parent or even old enuf 2 drive but my mom says shes gonna give me her 1994 camry and shes gonna get a new carWill you Buy your Kid their First Vehicle?Yeah, I probably will. If I have the money too, I will especially if they have a job, granted it won't be a BMW if I could afford that because a 16 year old can't handle that. I know if I maintain at least all A's and B's til I'm 16 I'm getting $10,000 but I worked for that money and it's not liking I am or could go buy a brand new car, I plan on refurbishing a VW bus and paying my cousin to restore it.Will you Buy your Kid their First Vehicle?I have with all 3 of my children.

I think it is great when one can afford to help their children out. Be a child or grown adults.

I know my adult children appreciate all that I do for them.
