There’s a thin line between pride and bragging. I don’t attach my tax return to my car.
Sorry but it’s weird.
I'm the OP and I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds this weird.
It’s always annoyed me and the responses you’re seeing that it’s being done for the practical reason of drop off is just complete bullshit. It’s done because of pride, which goes before the fall as they say. Posters should be honest at least.
So private school families aren't allowed to feel a sense of shared identity and community and display a sticker on their car. But public school families, sports families, camp families, etc. etc. are just fine to do so? Ok.
I feel all those things without a sticker on my car (or even a yard sign!) but if you need the magnet then I guess I shouldn't discriminate.
We have a private school because my kid was super excited at receiving the magnet and wanted to display it the way he has seen other groups (soccer, hockey, public prek, churches, public elementary) being displayed on other cars. We have a piano one on there too and a sport one because he "earned" those too after years of participation and was excited about them. Judge away.
Well you might want to teach your kid to be more humble. There’s no need to advertise all of your successes to the whole world. Have you ever thought about that?
How many different people do you think are seeing my car every day and scrutinizing the magnets on it? You're weird. Why don't you go attack some Tiktok folks for bragging about their... whatever they're bragging about on Tiktok these days?
Nice deflection.
It doesn’t matter who sees it or how often. The question posed was why do it. You said because your kid was proud. And your kid wants others to know of his accomplishments. That’s bragging and should be discouraged.
Pride = / = bragging
I don't know where you are getting this. This is about you. Either you are sensitive and have a chip on your shoulder, or you are simply trolling.

I never said anything about public schools. This is a private school thread. In any event, the pride isn’t over “shared community” but shared exclusivity and you know it.
Oh so you’re jealous. Tracks
