No, you cannot stick me there

Growing up I distinctly remember my mom sporting 'My Child is an Honor Roll Student!' and 'Dance Mom' proudly on her car bumper; I also recall being slightly embarrassed by this but feeling some consolation in the fact that every other minivan boasted the same excessive signs.  As bumper stickers became a thing of the past, more ridiculous decals were unveiled that went above and beyond TMI.  Gone were the days one could only gloat about their child's stellar swimming status or brag that this was their 6th (yes 6th!) consecutive year at band camp.  Oh no, the entire family (dogs, cats and fish included) now gets recognition.  Does your husband golf?  We've got him with a 9 iron!  Two daughters in ballet, one on the chess team, son in soccer and baby on the way?  Get the basic family accessories package and detachable baby bump for easy updating after nine months fly by!

Seriously?  Pretty soon this person won't be able to see out the back window; an obstruction of view ticket is rapidly approaching with each car line drop off.
