[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]You are like most parents in other areas. Travel in just about any direction from the DC region and you'll see the profusion of HS/college stickers start to decline radically. Not as many helicopter parents, and not as many people who view both themselves and other members of their family as walking resumes. [/quote]

I have lived in Chicago, Portland, OR, the bay area, DC, and Austin.  There are plenty of stickers in all of these places.  Where you don't see a lot of stickers is working class neighborhoods in any area of the country.  Go to any upper middle class neighborhood in any reasonably large city and it's college stickers galore.[/quote]

Ever realize that you could drive all over the UK and never see an Oxford or Cambridge sticker?  Or throughout Paris never see a Sorbonne sticker?  Americans are so class insecure![/quote]maybe school stickers are an american thing? like gun-ownership?[/quote]

Thank you!

Some people should just stop instead of showing off their ignorance. The "It's only a DMV" thing didn't work, so now it has to be an American thing.

And is someone really trying to make the point that Americans are more class conscious than Europeans? Why with their royal families and all? Obviously all PP has done IS drive around those countries instead of living there for any period of time.

The only ones insecure are those bothered by college stickers. I couldn't care less what anybody puts on their cars.[/quote]
