I’m not sure quite how to say this, but their parents are liars.

…the ad had broken rules for advertisers not to discredit parents and teachers.

Wait a minute. I think, based on my reading and a logical assessment of the world, that evolution is the best explanation available to explain the history of life on earth. I am also an atheist (with a touch of agnosticism thrown in for giggles). I have raised my children to be free-thinkers and to weigh the evidence before making a decission. If I were in Russia (or if we had a silly law such as that here in America) then any advertisement which mentioned god (creationism, organized religion (I’m a Unitarian (as are my children) and that does not count as organized religion) etc.) then isn’t the advertiser attempting to discredit me as a parent?

Also, I discourage my fourteen (almost fifteen (AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!)) year old daughter from wearing makeup. Are makeup advertisements undermining my authority?

This is more than a slippery slope. If we had a law like this in America, it wouldn’t be long before every commercial was banned because is discredited some parent some where.

Actually, would a world without commercials really be that bad?

…the ad had broken rules for advertisers not to discredit parents and teachers.

A slippery slope indeed! What if the parents think Coke is better than Pepsi but the ads say otherwise? What if the teachers have been teaching the kids to use standard spelling, “days” not “daze”? “Night” not “nite”? “Light” not “lite”?

Kids are usually much smarter (and wonderfully rebellious) than we give them credit for. I don’t think you have much to worry about.
