Sudden braking, swerving etc can harm their necks. Have some humbleness, would ya? It's just parents making sure others know to make theur traffic maneuvers with extra care to the fact any sudden movement can actually hurt a newborn and at best (most common reasons we use these signs) is to understand stupidy from other drivers can wake up our screaming fit of terror that took 3 hours of driving to get her to stop throwing up and screaming cause she wants "out".

If asking for a bit of respect and extra care from other drivers is selfish to some, then I am really sorry that something so trivial and obvious is such an angering facet of modern society to you "baby-haters". Your being late for a latee is no more important nor less important than someone's kids in a car your about to pass at 160 with oncoming traffic then I guess.

After beating the fuck out of a guy for doing that to us when my son was an infant, I decided it's better to NOT use baby on board signs because I did notice that people do drive crazier around them because non-breeders feel so entitled to make it known that "Your brats are not my concern so why should I change MY ways because you decided top shit out kids".

(*disclaimer: I am not attacking YOU directly, just the mentality of it that many share so when I say "you" above it means in general)
everyone knows that new parents think they are the only people in the world to go throuh what they are going through, if anything they have self entitlement issues. people shouldn't drive 'crazy' around anyone. everyones life is just as valuable. other than its original intention, the sign is useless.
