Post Subject: Are You Kidding Me??? Read Article

Ya know, it's a good thing you don't have kids with that attitude Chris. I don't think anyone cares to see commercials at all. They really are just annoying. However, watching a commercial about toys and cereal is a little different. I can't always control when my children are watching TV. I'm a single mom, I have no help keeping house and cooking dinner. Therefore, I can be a little too busy to change the channel everytime an inappropriate commercial comes on. The person that posted that wasn't ranting, they were asking who do they talk to regarding this subject. They weren't asking for you to be rude or even for your opinion. You really should put yourself in other people's shoes before you shoot off your mouth. I hope you know how much that post showed your age and immaturity.

Actually, Ms. Calvert, she was ranting as it was published under the Raves, Rants & Roses column and as you may see before her paragraph is the four letter word followed by a colon, 'Rant'. By posting anything under this column, you are asking for other people's opinion wether they like those opinions or not. Thats the problem with people these days. Instead of complaining about that commercial why don't you turn it to your advantage? One of the biggest contributions to our youth today concerning STD's is ignorance. They aren't educated about the statistics. Thats whats wrong with this city. Everyone wants to turn his head and say "Oh, its not in our town..." Well you know what? It is in your town and the sooner you accept that and start to be proactive in teaching our youth the risks of not staying abstinent the better. Parents need to talk to their kids and tell them the consequences. I do understand that there is an appropriate age to do this and I can understand not wanting your young children seeing these commercials but, that time will come and will you just still complain about that Valtrex commercial? I hope not.
