You'd about get your car keyed for displaying a sticker like that around my red-state fundie neck of the woods. Even a soccer ball sticker wouldn't help.

But I wouldn't go back to not having kids for anything. I know some people prefer that life, but not me.

And I say this having just transfered $$$ to my kid's college bank account, some of which will be spent in ways I wouldn't approve of...

But I remember what my mom says:

"Someday a bag lady is going to show up on your doorstep, and you're going to say 'Hi Mom!' "

I know it's true because that's exactly what happened with my grandma, and I think the family tradition goes back many, many generations, probably to Neanderthal times.
