Elementary school car magnets

Anonymous
What's the deal with these? Is this the new version of "my kid is an honor student at..."? I kind of chuckle when I see them...nothing wrong with a little school pride but it's not the Ivy League (yet!)

My first grader keeps asking me to put one on my car. I told him I don't have one and they don't make them anymore. He told me "yes you have one. It was in our first day packet last year." I just replied 'oh'. He hadn't asked again and it's been a week. I am hoping I'm good.

I am anti-car sticker of any kind...and anti-vanity plates.

The kids love them. I don't have one but my kids have asked.

It's not bragging, it's just self-identifying and "personalizing" your car to reflect your community, interests, etc.

I'd rather buy an inexpensive car magnet and have my kid smile versus buy gift wrap or cookie dough.

I used to think they were dumb, but now that I see how excited it makes my kids, raises money for the PTA, and makes/identifies us as part of our little school community, I kinda like them.

My kids haven't asked, but I would put it in my car in a heartbeat if it made my kid happy. It's a pretty minor thing to do for your kid if they like it.

We get it and then stick it on the fridge. Who said it needs to go on the car?

I had one, but lost it in the car wash. It's $5. Helps raise funds. Associates you with a community. Makes kid happy. Don't see a lot of cons to argument.

I'm with 22:05 - just don't like putting stuff on my car. In general I find the magnets a little silly. (but totally fine if they make other people happy)
