My daughter is on college break and wants to come home but money is tight right now. I'm wondering if anyone (preferably christian) safe might be willing to allow her to drive with you. She is licensed to drive in California and may be willing to help with the drive. I may be reached at [email]arzeeta@gmail.com[/email]

You're going to put her in a car with a stranger for 2-3 days to save some money? Once you cover her share of gas as well as accommodations along the way, I can't imagine you would be saving a whole lot.

And incidentally, the chances of you finding someone on C-D who is going that long route at the time that she needs to travel are preeeeetttty slim.

First thread as well...
Oh man, I don't know where to begin. This won't end well. I would neither recommend this approach on an anonymous website of such coverage for "your daughter', nor would I recommend people respond to it with an offer of a drive, particulalry with a poster that created a membership for this sole purpose.
You will get responses, none of it good. You should at least have asked for someone to PM you, so at least you know it's a member in good standing, my God why would you post your personal email? You are going to have nutcases crawling out of the attic.

With all due respect and I believe your intentions are good~~~~BUT~~~~ are you nuts???
If I couldn't afford air, train or even bus fare to bring her home she isn't coming via a drive with a stranger.
As disappointing as it may be for her to have to stay there I'm sure she has friends who may live locally that would invite her to their homes.

Please don't do this, there are way too many crazies out there.

I'm sure if some total stranger on the internet tells you that they are a safe person that they wouldn't lie to you.
