Banned ADVERT

[WhiteLight]

This advertisement was banned in Australia.. can you tell why?
This to me is probably the best ad ever made.
An important message to everyone.. as compared to all the garbage that is thrown our way on TV and adverts..

Take a look, it's only 1:30 secs or so

I can see why they banned it BUT it really does show that kids follow the example of the adults in their lives.

Was it the cigarette in the kids fingers? Tossing rocks at the cat? Or the people giving the finger?

That's the ONLY message in the ad..
All the other 'banable' stuff in there is to get the attention of 'mature' people to behave grown up

But we do not want to see kids smoking, drinking and cussing and shooting the bird.

​Not ones that young.

It's a message every parent should learn... Instead, most live the same and just yell at their kids for emulating them. Such a shame.

You're wrong there mate! Happens here all the time in the lower socio economic groups. Sad but true.

But we have shows like "Teen Mom" (I watch, haha) that glorify teen pregnancy. "Secret life of an american teenager" where every teenager on the show has a kid... (Wife watches that).

It was banned simply because it forced adults to see the REAL consequences of their unthinking actions and reactions.
