Did you Harmon asked to -- You've got to go now to do.
Fox five aging parents for having me then I'm addressing them.
Oh yeah.
On her red shoes.
And the independent.
Consider alternative -- husband who it is over on channel -- right now.
And when you got to hurry and we -- just run through all the lights.
We did this amazing tease about spying on your kids Steve now which you pay.
999 dollars to find out how safe your teenager is really driving there's a San Diego based company you would -- house.
Okay because this is it -- and drivers.
Not yet -- kids are too little but San Diego based company will.
Do this in 285.
Cities across the country and off duty or retired police officer will tailor your team.
For fifteen to twenty minutes and then right of a full report.
And present their conclusions to the client which I assume is the -- and then the parents has a conversation with the -- C.
I -- my question is I wonder whether or not the kid knows that that person behind me in the Camry is a cop because just generally.
If you are driving -- as an adult if you're driving down a street and you see a cop in your rear -- -- Suddenly you start you're going exactly the speed limit it it just free -- but -- existing whether or not dangerous follow -- -- -- Or -- they say OK now really look out because former officer Wilson who's going to be tagging along for fifteen or twenty minutes.
Yes I'm feeling it won't be in cop cars physicists former -- -- care -- -- being camera -- well I was just thinking that one of America's most popular -- I'm okay.
Yeah it -- as a parent is you have driving age kids and older and wouldn't would you.
Would you prescribe to this and would you held the child that you were doing this.
And as the parent who taught them all how to drive but.
You -- probably not -- but.
Simply because I did you know we drove.
We would drive for a year or two before they'd be out on the -- so I had a pretty good idea.
Of which of the children would go around the -- is way too fast brick inappropriately.
And in fact one of our cars is just perfect for kids learn on because you really have to put -- was down on the break for a bit.
-- to stop it doesn't take off real fast so.
I get why parents would do it the number one thing that as a parent to this day I worry about is my kids.
Texting and I was just gonna say I would think that that would be.
I mean how many times have you been driving on the road when you look.
Over to the side and you see somebody texting I mean I see a lot every single day right and it's not kids -- adults -- So maybe that should be part of -- -- took in the report.
And I think it's it's it's probably a a a pretty good idea because I think yeah well teenagers have more accidents than anyone else right isn't the highest that's -- they -- the highest insurance rates and I think.
Teens more than anybody else up to age maybe 2536.
-- more accidents than anybody else.
Yeah I I get where it would be helpful if if you.
You know and using your kid to -- -- and then you hire that like in New Jersey you've got to have a -- school you've got to have three or four hours of driver school.
And then after that a lot of parents are so busy they don't they don't have time to you know do a lot of hands on sitting over in the passenger.
Seat watching the kids so I -- why they would do it but you know at some point there will be a -- Tailing them and you've just got to trust that that the way you've taught them or the way they were taught with the right way and if they make good choices and they don't text and.
This is what I read this is what I worry about most -- my kids are too little is those sleepless nights when your.
At home in your kids are out in the car driving for the first time I can imagine.
How that feels -- apparent that you've been -- you survived.
The -- they don't drive much at night they're generally.
Somewhere but.
You don't worry.
No doubt about it.
To my kids live down 95 and the inner city and it is the busiest road America and if you got a kid you just you wearing -- It's going to be scary I'm gonna be sitting right here my rocking chair until they walked to the door.
Exactly and got on that upbeat note in a -- Are you happy about the holiday season Christmas time coming I am I and geared up I don't know why.
I'm just in the mood.
And I hope all of you are as you know what couldn't say more Christmas in this beautiful decorations outshine the moon and Santa say in ho hum well.
I was jolt.
Whoever lines -- -- Christmas trees in front of 1211 avenue of the Americas crossroads of the world.
The headquarters of Fox News.
Have a great day folks see you back -- --
