What should I do when My mom...

What should I do, when for the first time I ask someone to drive my car to see the car in another perspective. I ask my mom to drive it from a place that is like half a mile from home. And the first things she does is make the longest curb rash ever. She made a curb rash on 80% of the rear left rim. What should I do, I just dont want to express what Id like to do, cause thats just wrong..


EDIT: I just went to see it, and the side skirt is also scratched up. I didnt noticed it before, but then it had this 2 inch thick, and like 1 foot and a half long scratch that went upwards diagonally.

Suck it up! It's your mom. What should she do to you for the pain you put her through... assuming you did, of course?

That sucks, but its your mom, so what are you going to do? Not much you can do, besides getting it fixed. Don't make her feel too bad about it, I am sure she feels awful as it is.

BTW--how did the car look prior to the wheel mess? Good, I suppose....

There are two things you should never lend...your car and you wife.

Suck it up and drive on!

You did ask her to drive your car. It was not like she took your key and went off with the car. Look, just think of it as a sign of unconditional love from mommy everytime you see it (just call it a birth mark). I would not get it fix or you will make her feel bad.

I would of switched drivers away from any curb, like a parking lot and NOT have her park it!
Suck for you....but you can fix it no biggie.

"I beat her, went to jail for 3 weeks" That's very very funny.

Happy Mother's Day

Yeah but just like everyone said, it's your mom. Just give her shit about it and get it fixed. If she offers to help cool but if not then no biggie. I mean how much do you think it cost to raise your ass? I'm sure much more than your whole car.

You should surprise her and show her that her boy has become a man by telling her that you love her and that she doesn't have to fix anything, you'll take care of it.

I assumed you were paying for your car, correct? If so that is what I meant. Car bill + Insurance for one month. I know my mom and if she did somethinglike that she would either mke sure she got it fixed for me or she would do me a huge favor like the one I mentioned...thing is I would not have to ask her to do either one.
