My son is 17 and graduates in May. He will go to college alone in the fall to become a Physician's Assistant.
Because he was in military school he did not drive. He had no permit for Missouri. We are now back in SE Asia and he is in Missouri.
We were going to have him get his driver's permit via grampa and grampa can teach him how to drive. But we were shocked to learn that only the legal guardians can sign this permit. So if my dad teaches my son how to drive it will be illegal. Is there a way to get him a learner's permit without us being physically present at the stupid DMV?
Is there a way to make him an emancipated minor to avoid this legal hurdle? How to put my dad as guardian? Anything a lawyer can do online both quickly and in an affordable manner to help him get his learner's permit? My father taught me how to drive well. There are no driver's ed courses in his area, and now I am not even sure he could take them without our signature.
Any advice?
