I'd sooner see family stickers on cars than things like "Bad Boy" or "Chosen Few" or "No Fear". What does surprise me though are the number of people who drive around giving free advertising to car dealers. All those number plate surrounds and rear window stickers advertising such and such motors and the phone number. Heck - advertising is expensive. Why give it to car dealers for free! If they wanted me to leave their signage all over my car, I'd be asking them for a substantial discount or ongoing payments!

in an age where "family" means nothing and the slappers latest boyfriend is the only male figure in a kids life i think its good to celebrate family.
lets face it there are plenty of cars out there that celebrate "defacto/latest R**T/benefit bought my car".
Same here, exhaust shops and how could we forget drury tyres. If they want advertising they can pay me.

Noticed that it's 'DRURY TIRES' ! They must be American. Either that or Drury is a really boring place!

Don't think I've seen these 'family stickers', can't really comment.
What I have seen a lot of in Sth Aucks is massive R.I.P - In memory of so-and-so plastered all over the back window of wagons or people movers.
As for these, I understand people want to show their love/respects, but in my opinion, the back window of an auto is not the place to do it.

Better than a sticker saying "My Son is in Jail (Murder)". !

I know, you're a special case ;-) But otherwise - why have to plaster stuff on a car - like PP for GT model or rememberance of a loved one dying, family, Olympic medal etc!! They might as well say "I've got a really low self esteem and here's the sticker to prove it" Compare with my workroom for my trade; I could have my framed qualification and trade cert on the wall but I can't be bothered - people are either going to trust that I do what I say or not.

Finally saw these stickers today what everyone going on about. Had a very good looking extremely hot solo Mum in work with 2 kids so on back window was 1 mum and 2 kids. Now i am a honest citizen but evil walks amongst us. If some scum saw those stickers and saw the Mum again extremely hot. He could put 2 and 2 together and realise she is single. All he has to do is got to post office with her rego number and get her address. So i personally think these stickers are stupid and only could cause harm. If you a female and have these stickers please at least p[ut a dog sticker on your back window someone might think twice. Just my 2 cents worth.

this fad hit america a few years back
there it was cool to put names under the stickers, make the kids feel important etc
they outlawwed having names under them as it didnt take lonf for pedos to catch on see the back of a van, follow family into store
get one kid alone "hi suzy, your mum Linda and dad john asked me to get you, your brother richie is hurt we have to go to the hospital"
done deal

That is just plain silly. How did you know she was a solo mum! Could it have been mums taxi and dad didnt drive it hence the mum and 2 child stickers on the window. How do you get the address from the PO! have you seen the dog sticker - not very threatening! do solo mums, regardless of how they look really have to hide. Calm down Alan, breathe in gently, the world is still a safe place.

I saw one saying"I always belt my kids up and so should you".That can be taken two ways.
