Just finished 20 hours with the pupil from hell. Dad, who apparently left home, (not surprised) booked and paid for 20 hours.  Her first words were along the lines of-: "I don't want to *** be here and I'm telling you now no *******one makes me do what I don't ******** want."
However she had to do the lessons because ****dad and his evil ***** girlfriend  would kill her.
Didn't have dads address or phone number so couldn't return the money and run, so we wasted  two hours every week on an estate, nearly got her onto the roads once but at the end of the street both feet came off the peddles and with the car still moving she folded her arms. "Told you I wasn't ********** doing it"
Five minutes before the end of the last lesson had to dual her because she took off her seat belt  and was getting out of the car before making it safe. 
Why do parents do this to 17 year old girls? My grand daughter said at 17 she wasn't learning to drive. At 21 she realised she had to, put her mind to it and soon passed, now she's considering taking a trailer test so she can tow her horse box.
Had a similar problem with another girl, first 10 paid for hours she made it clear she didn't want to be here. Next ten mum came along to make her behave. Fortunately the mum is an acquaintance  so after daughter slammed out of the car on the last lesson I was able to persuade mum to go away and think about it. it. She hasn't had a lesson since but they bought her her own car which has never been driven.
