Poll: Stick figure car decals
Have you seen these? You know, the minivan with the stick figure family on the back, a soccer ball magnet, a pair of ballet shoes magnet and an elementary school bumper sticker? Is this just common in my area or is this a nationwide phenomenon? Anyway, I had to laugh when I saw this parked at Qdoba the other day:

Dang, Duggars better look out for that lady!
I don't mind those stickers, as long as they don't have the names of the kids underneath the figures. That bothers me from a safety standpoint. Not sure if I'd put them on our car or not though.

There are quite a few around here. Most of them wearing Mickey ears
I don't see myself putting them on my car, though I do have bumper stickers/decals. I've got an alumni one, one that says "WTB" (Woman to Blame - from the song "Margaritaville), a TiVo one, and a breast cancer ribbon one.
I think it's a cute idea, but yes I agree that I wouldn't put names or anything on them. Not sure if I'd put them on my car, but I guess it's cute for a family.

I am laughing so hard at this poll. I get irrationally mad every time I see a car with any of these stickers on them. I actually had a conversation with my husband the other day about how much they annoyed me.
The reason why I hate them so much (and this is probably me being overly cautious and overthinking) but why would you ever want to advertise your family to complete strangers on the road. Around here if you have a large family (3+ children) you're either super poor or very wealthy. Most of these stickers you see are on the back of really expensive cars. Clearly, you're saying I am very wealthy and have this many children. People are weirdos and I honestly think that your children are more likely to get kidnapped when parents do something like this.

I cannot wrap my head around paying tens of thousands of dollars for a vehicle only to take it home and put a drug store sticker on it. No thanks!
I dislike the family ones because of the security reasons PP mentioned. Even more than this, I hate the personalized ones with names. I have a neighbor with a (roughly) $25,000 truck who spelled out the names of each person on the outside near where they would sit. So his name is on the driver's side door, his wife's on the passenger side door, and the grandkids on the back window. All of this done with the individual letter stickers that are typically used to put a last name on a mailbox at the curb.
