Driving a car + being autistic = headache for me!

Here I am, almost 24 years old, and I still can't drive. I feel like a little kid. At this point, my dad and I are so frustrated with each other that there are no more driving lessons. He doesn't seem to understand that I can't learn everything in one session of driving. He also doesn't believe my aspie...ness has any bearing on my driving. But I seem to remember a lot of us having trouble driving, am I right? Why?

On a side note, if this weren't bad enough, my mother is so bipolar panic-attacking over everything that she won't even be in a car with me, for fear I'll wreck it. No faith whatsoever. And there is no driver ed. in my area, just an instructor who touches my hand while I drive and says creepy things. Oh, and he coast $35 a 1/2hr lesson. No thanks.


The world has so much to offer, and yet, I would trade it all for a chocolate chip cookie.
