Save the Children

Advertisements are targeting the eyes of the youth and leaving a negative mark in a child’s body, mind, and soul for life. Advertising to children at such a young age is dangerous and this idea needs to be known. Our blog will state the dangers and all the different aspects of a child’s life that are affected from what many think are “only ads.” Liam, Conor, Danielle, Billy, and Nikita will cover topics such as obesity, junk food, product placement, alcohol, smoking, fast food, and various statistics, all having to do with the dangers of advertising to children.
