A New Label

In the mail today I received the renewal form for my annual Zoo pass. I read over the letter and then took out my check book so I could take care of it before we leave to visit Nana and Poppy. I get down to where you have to choose what type of membership you want and I see "Single Parent Family". Why can't there just be a catagory for 1 adult plus chilren - why does it have to be labeled with the words "single" and "parent"? Are we also supposed to file into a separate line while we are there? Should we wear a sign around our necks just to make sure everyone knows? Then again - Why am I so sensitive to this? So, I checked "Single Parent Family" because that is, after all, what we are, and wrote the check.
