What Our Kids Are Learning About Health From TV Ads

Drugs for Everything - They see and hear the following:

Women stopping normal menses
Men enhancing playboy senses

Girls preventing fertile sex
While boys are feeding growing necks

Seniors helping spark gray matter
Models starving - can't get fatter

Big man making triceps bigger
Big gal melting plus size figure

Even babies have their doses
Same for dogs with halitosis

Lipitor - instead of diet
Hide my Valium – I will riot

Supplements instead of food
Pop a pill and change your mood

Slow your heart rate, thin your blood
Stop the headache – no more “thud”

Here’s a coupon, try the latest
Ask you doctor - it’s the greatest


I say to them -

Climate Change, a long term worry
Drugs will kill you in a hurry



I know you guys are smart enought not to believe all the stuff you see and hear. Just listen to the side effects they mention, turn the TV off and go outside and get some exercise!
