C'mon dude, the little pup didn't rocket out of the womb guarding... give him a minute to grow into a big strong guard dog to guard your hoodie and belongings. I think changes in routines wreak everyone up. I'm so super paranoid about my keys, wallet and phone, and I'd probably be pretty exhausted with spending a couple of extra hours in the car that I wasn't really planning on.
Do you think the FIL will give up his license easily? GIL finally gave up her license at 92 but I think it had been pretty worrying for a few people for a few years.

I am too. it is kind of like getting an unexpected phone call in the morning as you are walking out the door and then something gets missed. Do you get that?
Hell no. He is "only" mid 70s, but he has some mobility and memory issues. Not paying attention as much as he should. The reactions aren't anywhere near fast enough.
I thought I was going to be the one driving (our car) so it was a surprise when we took theirs.
Oh totally... I've had situations where I've been on a work call as I'm leaving and afterwards just can not remember any part of the journey at all... and have left my work laptop at home because of it.
Honestly I'm hoping Full Self Driving gets figured out before we hit our 60s and 70s so we can keep our mobility. I totally get not wanting to give up your mobility, especially when you're older and may need to get to a doctor or a hospital... but I've also had some really close calls with elderly drivers who just had no idea I was there.
