okay i’m so sorry my brain can’t stop thinking of questions i have, but what do you think each of the kids decided to do after highschool, career wise?

just wanted to let you know that before i watch any episode of criminal minds now i look to find if you wrote something over it and read it first. currently watched s7ep23 btw.
whenever i hear the phrase “unstoppable force meats immovable object” i immediately think of mom and aaron. that is the epitome of their love put into words. a ways just thought i’d let you know. hope you’re doing well, ily
i love you darling!! this brought a big ole smile to my face :)
random ajf ask that came to mind: how do the hotchners handle driver’s licenses and getting cars for each of the kids? i know it’s different household to household, especially when you have multiple kids rights after each other.
all the kids have licenses (eventually)!
jack drove aaron’s suv when he needed it in high school, and he never needs a car after that - DC has great public transportation and he works at the pentagon after he’s done at georgetown, so he’s fine.
sophia is the only one who gets hers right away because hank started refusing to drive her to practice after she turned 16. she brings it with her to los angeles and boston.
isaac and elliot don’t get their licenses until they move to los angeles for college (because you can’t survive in LA without a car). isaac takes his car to chicago but hardly uses it. elliot continues to live in LA after school.
caroline doesn’t need a car at brown and she doesn’t really need one in high school, so she bops around with anyone else to get a ride. she does have her license though, and is the go-to DD in college. in post-bacc education, she lives in london and later oxford - still has no need for a car.
dave and tara hook the kids up with cars when they graduate from high school (if they want that to be their Big Gift), so all of 2nd gen has sick wheels.
