Kids can readily see these commercials run on television, as they don't seem only in the late hours when children would be off to bed - rather, they run in the afternoons and in primetime. So, what must kids think about these commercials? Although the commercials are suggestive and implied, any kid can find what these commercials are about by checking on the Internet. Is this healthy for them to know about problems such as erectile dysfunction that happens to some males later in life??

Certain, why wouldn't it be healthy? Unless your teenager becomes obsessed about not getting Ed I see no reason to worry. Whether you are worried about the effects of open talk about sex on tv, at least the Ed ads portray loving couples involved in healthy intimacy unlike the actual programs on tv.

Well I for a fact know that these are making kids more and more insecure approximately their penis sizes. Whether you haven't noticed already, there are tons of kids asking is my penis too small? Honestly these commercials are giving a poor message out there and half those kids do not understand that puberty ends around a later age and that their penises will continually growing.

You can't shield kids from matters like this. Honestly, even back in ancient times, parents and whatnot worried about the same thing.

The best object that can happen is for the parent to realize and understand that, not panic, and talk to their kids about sex and the organs.

I think the biggest trouble in nowadays's society, is not that children are exposed to commercials approximately e.d drugs, and the likes, but the overall sexuallizing of them. It is important for children to memorize that sex is a natural operate, and that sometimes things don't work as they should, but I am more alarmed that we don't teach them the healthy side of sex and relationships, but are happy for them to sit on a saturday morning on the couch watching some freaken woman wearing not much at all dancing on mtv. We market bras for eight year olds and enter kids in beauty pageants, dolled up to look like 25 yo, but people have a problem with them seeing an advert about a valid product. You only have to visit this site to see that kids are really uninformed about their bodies, and how they work, but know a lot approximately the nasty side of sex and relationships. Its sad that they will then go on to bring up other kids, imparting the same lack of care and self respect.

For the record, I'm not a prude. I do teach some sex ed in schools, I am sometimes dismayed by the information kids hand out to each other, that is both idiotic and sometimes dangerous.

Sorry to rant, lol. but this is an issue that I do feel a lot approximately.
