does this make sense ??


Marketing to youth


Under-aged marketing is a cheap tactic to get kids to ask their parents either for money or for products regarding the advertisement they previously saw.

For the rest of these paragraphs let me get something clear when I use the words "kid" or "children," I am referring to any individual under the age of thirteen. I recognize this may be prejudice but it is generally considered that after the age of thirteen you are no longer a child; instead, a youth or a teenager.

The reasons I have boldly claimed that "under-aged marketing is a cheap tactic," is quite apparent and obvious when you put this under the imaginary common-sense microscope; let me elaborate. I will state the main points and then we can more closely examine them under this microscope

My statements:


"Kids don't have enough life experience to determine whether an ad or promotion is misleading."


"Kids generally do not have much disposable income, or income to speak of"


"Kids are used as a middle ground between marketing teams and their parent's money"


So, let's break this down; the first statement, what this is trying to mean is that kids have, unlike adults, not had enough life experience to determine whether a product is trustworthy. From prior experience most adults should be able to tell if a product is trustworthy, if the product is of enough quality, and even chose between products; consider diminishing returns (the concept that after a certain price products do not get better.) Kids lack this skill because they have simply not had enough life experience. Obviously, there can be exceptions to this, kids can have had enough experience, and there are adults that may not have enough experience to decern with this judgment; but to make it simple it is more or less universally accepted that people over the age of thirteen may already possess most or at least a bit of this judgment.

The second statement, this statement refers to how for many reasons, child labor laws included, children even over the age of thirteen may not be able to have a job. What this means is that children do not have a steady income of their own.

The second statement and the third statement fall under the same category and have the same finality; getting to the parents' wallet. This is usually the most controversial part of a subject like this, in the end, all that the marketing teams want is their money, they don't care how they get. If kids don't have money where can they get it from, the answer to that question is their parents.

So, in all this what the marketing teams are doing is getting to the parent's wallets. In doing so they are using their kids as a medium, if you will get to whom the ads were initially intended to get money from the parents.

All of this happens because children cannot differentiate between products. Saving the explanation from paragraph four, children do not have sufficient life experience for this, making them rely on their parents or other people, and use their parent’s money to buy them the product.

Some people might argue that all this just gives children more say in everything and allows them to see more of their choices. While to a certain extent this may be correct, yet again, children cannot properly and sufficiently decide for themselves what is best. Let me give a simple unconventional example. Little jimmy is innocently on the computer, watching his toy unboxing videos; when suddenly a mid-roll ad (advertisement in the middle of a video) starts to play. Jimmy is four years old and knows how to press the skip ad button but is suddenly entranced by an ad about cereal. This cereal claims to be the best serial in town, and that it tastes amazing. Little Jimmy had never heard about this brand but because the brand spent millions of dollars promoting it on various sites, it got to little jimmy who wanted nothing to do with cereal, to begin with. Little Jimmy thinks nothing of it, but it has not been forgotten. Next time little Jimmy goes to the supermarket with his dad, Big jimmy, for comedic effect. Big Jimmy and little Jimmy finally arrive at the cereal aisle, and little Jimmy recalls to his dad the ad he saw, claiming, “I WANT THAT CEREAL;” at this point, the ad has done its job. It got big Jimmy to buy his son the box of cereal that cost ten times as much just because it had a mascot and a catchy name; the cereal didn’t even taste that good, but they bought it. That my friend is how advertisements work, kids do not ponder upon such egregious things.

So, after this long-winded real-world example, it just goes to show you that people that think advertisements will broaden children’s spectrum and opinions on various products, it does not; whatsoever. It just makes the company more money; because more people buy.

In conclusion, children do not have enough real-world prowess to adequately choose for themselves (with some exceptions) what product is better, they will go directly to the one most advertised.

Where would you find the following excerpt?

All wild birds learn to mimic their parents and adults of their species early in life. Some can even mimic the sounds of other wild birds. Most known for this behavior are myna birds, the Australian Lyrebird, and the mockingbird. A bird's ability to understand or speak another bird's language can be very valuable in the wild. But what about those birds who learn to mimic human speech? Although mimicry may have survival benefits in the wild, in the safety and shelter of our homes, a pet bird learns to mimic our voice primarily because the sound is interesting to him - and it gets attention.

Today was an exciting day for Frosty. He spent the majority of the seasons stored safely under the stairs in a storage bin, but during winter he was carefully removed from the bubble wrap and placed lovingly on the mantle for display.

He loved to see the family put up the tree and fill it with all of the colorful ornaments that were tucked in beside him in the bin during the year. When the family was done decorating, Frosty gazed out at a room filled with garland and lights and listened to the children humming along to Christmas carols. The love in the room was undeniable.

It’s important to know, however, that life in a snowglobe was not all roses! The children absolutely loved to clink on the glass with their nails, pick Frosty up, and shake him like a rattle until the snowflakes attacked
him from every angle. Eventually, the blizzard would die
down, but there was a deafening silence as Frosty
waited for another person to pick him up to give
him another shake!

His favorite part of being on the mantle was
seeing the children open their gifts on Christmas
morning. Their excited voices were like music to
his ears and made up for all of the dizziness he
was subjected to during the holiday season.
