Has anyone seen the new add for Heinz Baked beans on TV????
Two guys meet in a supermarket aisle and one asks the other if he remembers him. Christine from ??? high??? The other guy looks puzzled and then has a flashback to an intimate moment with the female Christine at school. The penny drops and he says still eating baked beans or something similar, some things never change.
Thanks Heinz, I really didn't want to explain to my 8yo how the young female Christine is now a man....... I didn't think it was something that would come up for a very very long time. How do you explain this to young kids and has anyone else had the same question from their kids.
I wonder sometimes how some of these ads get through the censors and if anyone thinks of the impact it has on young kids.

I know exactly how you feel !
the ad I hate is the ones advertising 'TXT' your name with someone else's to find out if your compatible!
my reason! There's the one where this chic is at a bar talking to this guy when she txt's his name and hers - 'kate tom' - and it comes back with 9% she then tosses her drink in his face!
What sort of message does this send to our kids! That it's ok for girls to get away with such crap and the poor guy has to take it !!!! PLEASE SPARE ME !!!
I have five sons so this really ticks me off to think that women of today or even think that it's ok to be downright rude, self-centre little morons who think the have the right!
Girls who think like that go BLOW OFF somewhere else!!!!
cheers
