When I went to high school, I had a few friends who lived in small, remote villages... It was always interesting to hear their stories of driving a tractor when they would help out their parents with harvesting crops... They had a lot more "life skills" than anyone else who lived in the city or towns...
While I wouldn't like to teach my son to drive at such a young age, I completely understand your uncle's point of view... The kid should know as many skills as possible, as in remote areas, he should know how to survive and to help others in need!
