Use springboard unit 2 7th grade rading 2.8 and 2.6 passages for the assignments

Answer 1

if kids are to see other kids there age if tv they may think that they are able/mature enough to do these things. So my argument is that you should never target kids unless the company is customized to a kids product or something along those lines. Tobacco and Vaping companies often target kids with candy and sweets flavor knowing that it could potentially expand their market to children and teens. These types of companies that do not directly target them are still causing problems among the nations youth. So my argument stands that companies should never target children unless the product or service is tailored to children of that age.

Answer 2

Children's advertisement is so easy because they can influence other children. Yet that is where the ethical problems start. Kids aren't smart enough to know what they're selling to marketers. Advertisers already know that kids are going to exercise large numbers of Influence on their parents and in doing so can be relentless. When both children and parents are most insecure, such as when they are exhausted and hungry in the grocery store, the child's fervent pleas often result in the parent purchasing those products. Children seem to want almost any marketed product because the distinction between what is true and what is pretended is often not understood by them. If an ad shows a toy doing an impressive feat, they assume that if they buy it, it will do that. Kids don't understand the idea of selling.
