Why does everyone make a comment like that, or like "I wouldn't let a friend learn stick in my car."
My father taught himself and 5 kids (me and 4 siblings) to drive stick in a 1983(?) Saab 900. When he traded it in for a 2006 Accord EX just a bit ago, he had never replaced the clutch or tranny. EVER! And both my brothers sucked major ass at driving it, while me and my two sisters got it pretty quick.
A car's tranny and/or clutch isn't gonna go bad from grinding it a few times and stalling, that's just a stupid statement to make. If his car is even remotely ruined because of that, then a Honda sucks.
I mean honestly.. doing burnouts from revving it up and dropping the clutch is FAR worse than teaching someone how to drive the car. That's how you burn and wear the hell out of the clutch. And I'm willing to wager you've done that on your car several, several times.
