I tell you this for context. I bought both kids their first cars. My oldest got a fully loaded Toyota Solara, and my youngest got a Chrysler PT Cruiser. Had I found a BMW or Mercedes at a reasonable price at that time, I wouldn't have hesitated putting them in one. Cars don't make kids into "shits".

I don't disagree, though, you are saying your kids are not "shits" based on their education and now their careers. I have a degree, an education, and a good paying job, but can still be a shit to those around me and society :-)
