However, the real pickle here is the fact that both her sons have fairly busy lives and every time she wants to go places, she has to check if either of them are available to transport her.
Depending on her sons has restricted her mobility tremendously.
I am 81-years-old and my two sons have taken my car away from me leaving me completely dependent on them for transport. I think I’m a perfect driver, but I had a little accident a month ago. Now my kids say I must never drive again. I don’t think this is fair at all. Whenever I speak to them about it, they dismiss me. I want my car back. What should I do?
