Nope, he never did. To this date, it still pisses me me off to think that he never gave me a chance. He didn't even teach me how to drive. I had to pay for my own driving lessons.
I remember a little teaching done by older family members, siblings and cousins but nothing major. I ended up taking drivers ed in school and just doing it the old fashion way. I guess I did fine seeing as I aced the class.
I don't actually remember it, but there is a picture of me on my dad's lap and it seems I am driving. :-) I was older than most kids when they get their license, but I am just happy I got it.
We used to own a large farm in Tennessee, and by the time I was 12 years old, I was driving my dads old Chevy all over our farm, by myself. I was tall for my age, and could reach the pedals easily, so I'd drive out to the pig pen, or the pond, or the chicken house or wherever.
