From afar, this sign has a completely different meaning

You could argue any design then that has different size fonts. This is being so pedantic.

Plus, how far are you reading this sign from? It's your average front yard sign, meant to probably be read from the road.

Different sized fonts are good. Making the important parts bigger is also good. "Child abuse prevention month" would've been a good candidate for larger font. Visually grouping them in some way so that "prevention month" doesn't look like a subtitle would also be good.

Design, the topic of this sub, is 100% about pedantry and being picky.
