Gumbo, I'm feeling for you. Our DD's are the same age so I've been there. Thankfully my husband has the patience of a saint when it came to teaching kids how to drive. He took her out driving most nights after dinner from the day she got her license. She was really our most eager driver and loved going. Really, it just took lots and lots and lots of time behind the wheel. Even though she has a full license already and drives by herself to school every day, we still try to encourage her to take less busy streets. We help her plan routes that avoid the busiest streets and trickiest intersections. That said, she's doing really well. I do think it's just practice and logging the miles.
And while I'm not suggesting drinking before taking her out, nothing says you shouldn't do so when you get home.
