What is the impact of television advertisement on youth?

The advertisement industry has a tremendous impact on our youth. What some people see on television, they take for truth. They tell us what to wear (because everyone is wearing it), what to eat (because everyone is eating it), what to do (because everyone is doing it). The advertisers know how to appeal to our senses. They use peer pressure very heavily. "You need to wear these tennis shoes because (add a big name sports star) is wearing them and everyone else is going to wear them. You want to be cool don't you?" They have told our youth that sex is a recreation to be shared by all because, "Everyone is doing it". You have to have a fast car that can go 120 mph even though the speed limit is set at about half that. They have confused our youth with the difference between "need" and "want. Ok, I've said my piece. Have a blessed day and turn off the TV.
