Farrah Abraham and her daughter Sophia are preparing to celebrate a major new change ahead of the teen’s 16th birthday.
As Sophia approaches the age that Farrah was when she began appearing on 16 And Pregnant, she has been preparing to learn to drive with her mother.
The mother–daughter duo were recent dropping by a car dealership in a photo Farrah reposted to Instagram over the week.
Her daughter, who recently started affecting a rebellious goth style, is eligible for a learner’s permit in California began at age 15 1/2, so she is potentially only days away from being able to hit the open road — as long as she has adult supervision.
‘@sophialabraham Car shopping,’ Farrah captioned a photo of Sophia admiring a sleek black vehicle.

Farrah’s daughter Sophia is only days away from turning 15 1/2, meaning she’ll soon be eligible for a learner’s permit in California. The Teen Mom star shared a photo over the weekend of her daughter while they went car shopping
Farrah’s only child perfectly matched the car in a black T-shirt and shorts, along with matching black trainers.
Earlier this month, the reality star posted a fun video of herself quizzing Sophia ahead of her first time behind the wheel.
Farrah opened by asking Sophia what she thought could be better about a hypothetical ‘driving experience’ and the car she would be using that day.
But that only teed her up to snarkily reply, ‘My own car.’
Then Farrah appeared to go over a checklist for her daughter to keep in mind once she was actually driving.
But the video took an oddly philosophical turn next.
‘OK, what’s realer? Real life or online?’ Farrah quizzed Sophia.
‘Real life,’ Sophia responded, which was the answer her mother was hoping for.

Afterward, the aspiring driver took a seat behind the wheel of her mother’s SUV, though she only adjusted the seat in the clip.
‘It looks like your head’s a little too forward. Do you need me to help you?’ Farrah teased Sophia as the purple-haired teen leaned the seat backward while giving her mother a steely glare.
Farrah revealed that one of the things her daughter was hoping to do once she could drive on her own was to pick up mice to feed to her pet snake, and the 15-year-old added that she was also looking forward to going on ‘road trips.’
The Teen Mom star ended her clip with what seemed like another non sequitur, as she praised services including Instacart and DoorDash for allowing her to stay home and avoid taking a drive to pick them up.
She may have intended to suggest those service apps to other parents who either didn’t want to drive or didn’t want their teenage children driving, as she captioned her post: ‘ARE YOU READY TO DRIVE? @sophialabraham, Parents my favorite apps and this checklist is everything.’
In another related clip, Farrah made it clear that she was teaching Sophia about topics including defensive driving and how to navigate car insurance.
She again set her daughter up to dunk on her when she asked for an example of something that could cause distracted driving, to which Sophia replied: ‘You.’
