So true. But advertising people normally got no childreen and so they dont know how childreen-thing works because they stay all the time in the agency. So how could they know that ignoring a screaming child isnt acceptable for "good" parents and most of the other people outside. And the best is its the same with advertising that animates to do it this way.

Bad ad.

I know plenty of people in advertising that have children. You don't really know what you're talking about.

You´ve missed my point ;-)

Becomes this ad better or worse, if one of the creators got childreen?

Clever, subtle, good. Also, it's an ad, not an advocacy position regarding ignoring crying babies. Lighten up people.

Buaaaaaaaa (He visto otra U en Perú, están usando el alfabeto de señas correcto?) No es que influya mucho es el aviso, es solo la manía de que las cosas sean perfectas.

GHOST CAMPAIGN, GHOST AGENCY, VERY WELL KNOWN IN PERU BY THIS KIND OF MEGA GHOST SCUM.
Lo digo porque trabajo en Perú.
NEVER EVER RUN, CAN SAY IT BECAUSE I WORK IN PERU.
Ya es el colmo, ahora vamos a tener que soportar que estos huevones también exporten a las webs de publicidad mundiales su basura truchera.
OBVIOUSLY ADSOFTHEWORLD CAN'T KNOW IT, BUT AT LEAST ONE CAN HELP TO UNCOVER THE TRUTH.

Ads are serious business. It represents a message, a brand, an idea, a representation, a character, etc.
The list goes on. it's fine for a non-advertising person to take ads lightly, but it's an advertising sin for an ad person to do that.
Every ad has to be carefully conceptualised and targeted so much so that even if you can't target everyone, at least don't piss people off.
Unless that's what you ad sets out to do in the first place...
Negative advertising is a well known term in the advertising/branding industry. But I don't blame people outside of this industry for not knowing the importance of understanding it...
