    That could mean 'a child of ours'.
    Sorry slightly off topic
    The etymology of the word Car is not English but Gaulish
    Originally a two-wheeled Celtic war chariot.

    Some feel it an unnecessary sticker but if it puts parents' minds at ease, knowing that there are "stupid" not to mention wreckless drivers aplenty out there, then what harm?

    And will stupid, wreckless drivers change their behaviour because of a sticker? And will stupid drivers understand it as gaeilge?

    I'd genuinely love to know why people put these stickers on their cars - what's the real message?

    Sorry to divert off on a tangent again, but I find this too amusing not to comment on - it's not the "wreckless" drivers that I worry about, it's the reckless ones. In fact, I would have thought that all drivers would be doing their best to remain wreck-less, especially if they have a baby on board!
