One of my kids is saying similar. While I respect and support that choice, we’re in the US so that seriously limits the places you can live. I keep saying he really needs to learn how to drive while I’m helping him get started in life, then see if he can figure out a life without a car. Then it would be his choice, not a limitation

My parents did the same thing for me. They made sure I could drive then encouraged me to take the bus. That way I would never be stuck.
