I made a comment and a couple of bloggers didn't quite agree with me as you can read inthe posts below mine.
(You can see all posts on this story on the link above).

Thinking that the adult "lasting longer in the bedroom" style radio ads are inappropriate for young children during the day, I asked for an opinion from all our Federal Politicians, who obviously love children and like to be seen, and photographed with young children , (especially before an election.) The response I received from the majority of the very people who are elected to show leadership, was pathetic, with most not even acknowledging my three emails. My website www.protectkids.com.au shows the full list of our Federal Leader from A to Z with their replies (or lack of) What does your your local member think of grand pa having to fend off questions from a young grand daughter about premature ejaculation on the way home from school?

' hans stephens of kirrawee 9:41am' - get a life, mate. What a great relationship that a grandchild feels so safe that they can ask their grandparent such questions. Look at the underlying issue where GrandMa/Pa is still around to collect their kids kids from school. The innocence of children and their confidence in feeling they can ask their grandparents such questions. How would you have the child find out about such medical conditions? From their inexperienced schoolmates at the back of the toilet?

I just think that adult ads should be only on at adult times. The lady in the next post has a more sensible view.


The main issue here is what chidren see and how they react. The large roadside ads are visible to children day and night and the content should be vetted accordingly. Any overly suggestive ads should be banned. Likewise ads for unhealthy junk foods (goodby MacDonalds pointer signs). On TV the "naughty" ads should be seen after 9.30 when the tots should be sound asleep. Personally I just love the "naughtiest ads on TV" shows. You have to have a sense of humour here. Just make sure its at an adult time.
