Mom Fights Back! DMV Demands She Surrender Her Vanity Plate After 15 Years

A mother of four was shocked when New Hampshire’s DMV told her she had to give up the vanity plates she had for 15 years.

The plates were a playful reminder to her sons to use the bathroom before getting in the car. However, the DMV didn’t see it that way and decided the plates referred to “sexual or excretory acts.”

In 2019, Wendy Auger from Rochester, New Hampshire, was told by the DMV to turn in her vanity license plate after using it for 15 years.

“It would be a real shame if I lose it,” said Wendy, who often gets compliments on her funny plates.

Referencing the state’s motto, “Live free or die,” she added, “If I have to take it off, then I won’t be able to live free.”

Her plates read “PB4WEGO,” reminding her kids to “pee before we go” before getting in the car.

“What parent hasn’t said that to their kids before leaving the house?” she asks. “I’m not one to protest, but this is just ridiculous.”

However, the DMV sent her a letter saying the plates needed to be turned in because they believe the letters refer to “sexual or excretory acts.”

“I’m not a political activist,” she tells CNN. “But this plate isn’t offensive. It’s part of our family and who I am, and there was no reason for them to take it away.”

At the time, Auger had 10 days to return her plate and was allowed to pick another custom plate for free.

After getting the letter, she posted it on Facebook with photos of her plates.

Her post quickly went viral.

One person commented on Auger’s social media page, saying, “This is so ridiculous… It’s funny and cute, and it’s a great reminder!” Another person wrote, “What’s going on?! You’ve had that plate FOREVER.”

A third person suggested, “Maybe it should say Pee or Pay…??? lol”

Responding to those who encouraged her to fight the decision, Auger joked, “Live free or die my arse,” and added, “I might get a plate that says ‘dmv sux,’ but I might get pulled over a lot!”

Her post gained a lot of attention on social media and eventually caught the eye of New Hampshire Governor Chris Sununu. He sent her a message saying: “Hey Wendy, it’s Chris Sununu. Just wanted to let you know we fixed that issue. Sorry for the mix-up and the delay, but common sense won out in the end.”

On August 28, 2019, Auger shared a new Facebook message, announcing her victory.

“This Sassy Momma Has Her Plates!!!,” writes Auger.

Paris Hilton, sad news

Paris Hilton revealed her anguish and annoyance at hearing disparaging remarks about her 8-month-old baby, Phoenix Barron, in a recent emotional social media post.

Hilton didn’t take long to protect her child from these harmful remarks because she is a strong and compassionate mother.

An Amazing and Hardy Child

Hilton, who is renowned for her composure under duress, highlighted that Phoenix the infant is both “perfectly healthy” and has a “large brain.” She wished to convey that her son is a happy, independent young man who is deserving of love and respect.

Hilton vented her frustration on her Instagram Story about people who would harm her child. She anticipates remarks because she is a well-known person, but it is just “unacceptable” and extremely upsetting to target her child or anybody else’s.

Hilton is hoping for the same in return for all of the hard work she has put into creating a loving, respectful, and accepting workplace.

The Difficulties of Being a Mother in Public

It may be difficult to navigate parenthood in the spotlight, and Hilton is aware of the particular difficulties she encounters. Some people believe she’s not a good mother if she doesn’t share pictures of her child on social media.

However, there are some that react cruelly and hatefully when she does share happy moments. Hilton doesn’t waver in her devotion to and delight in her kid, though.

She calls him the “biggest blessing” of her life and describes him as “perfectly healthy, adorable, and angelic.” Her desire to have a child has really come true.

For Hilton, spending each day with Phoenix is a potent reminder of what’s important in life. In spite of the nasty remarks, she begs for compassion and understanding from others.

She finds it hard to understand why someone would criticize such innocence. Through her brave narrative, Paris Hilton aspires to encourage greater empathy in society.

Although the event made her more aware of cruelty, it also brought her support from mothers in her community and online who stood up for her and Phoenix.

Knowing that there are so many people in the world that adore and support me fills me with such gratitude. It meant a lot to me that someone was watching out for Phoenix and that they would stand up for me.

The Paris in Love actress claims that parents have been reaching out to her via emails, direct messages, and other correspondence, saying they couldn’t believe she had to go through this at such an early stage of motherhood.

“I just read through all of the notes expressing how much people like Phoenix, how stunning he is, and how important it is to ignore trolls. Seeing how much love there is for my son and me simply meant a lot to me. I sincerely thank everyone who is reading this. I sincerely appreciate everyone’s concern for us.
