Doc 3 argument and answers .

My document is on advertising to children is it marketing or manipulation? If so is that still ethical?

Marketing to children is ethically wrong and manipulative.
  

• Because it causes childhood obesity.
• Because it promotes violence, and sexuality.
• Because it objectifies children.

My argument is on how large fortune 500 hundred companies are well aware of what works for marketing tactics. All marketing is manipulation, but when it comes to children they do not have the capacity to understand like adults. Parents should monitor and limit their children's television viewing habits. They should also explain how advertising works. This will teach children to think and react accordingly when they see an advertisement. Marketing to children has negative effects because it promotes childhood obesity,sex and violence and objectifies children.
