Write a short counterclaim for the claim Michelle Obama is making in these remarks to the Grocery Manufacturers Association.

So this isn't surprising when studies show that even a single commercial can impact a child's brand preferences預nd that kids who see foods advertised on TV are significantly more likely to ask for them at the store.

So whatever we believe about personal responsibility and self-determination, I think we can all agree that it doesn't apply to kids.

I think we can all agree that parents need more control over the products and messages their kids are exposed to. Parents are working hard to provide a healthy diet and to teach healthy habits預nd we'd like to know that our efforts won't be undermined every time our children turn on the TV or see a flashy display in a store.

Yes, a child can see a commercial and it impacts their preferences, however, not every commercial is junk food, some commercials could be for positively impacting the well being of your child.
