Exactly. It's about teaching good habits early. Between that, and the ability to drive pretty much anything with wheels, starting her off on a manual is doing her a favor.
Actually, I was thinking (as long as your not in a low car) that wheel stops might be beneficial But yeah... if you're practicing driving in a parking lot, find one that is completely open with as little to run into as possible.
