Chlorox should be ashamed of themselves!

NewFamily09

Has anyone seen their new commercials, particularly the one where the little boy yells "Mommy, I made poo poo!" and she looks inthe toilet and doesn't see anything.  Then she asks, "umm, where?"  and it's in the bath tub?  I thought it was a pretty funny commercial, but my 1/2 brother's wife posted on FB last night that she thinks Chlorox should be ashamed of themselves because she has a 20 month old son who she is about to start potty training and she feels like the commercial is sending him the wrong message that it's okay to poop in a tub. 

I commented and said I thought it was hilarious.  She commented back that even though it's funny, it's teaching our toddlers that it's okay to poop in a tub.  Then I got a little snarky and made a comment that I don't let my son watch much television so I don't really worry about him picking up things from commercials. 

Do you think she has something here?  Do you think the commercial awful and teaches toddlers bad habits?

I think she's reaching a bit far on this one.

I think she has FFS-itis.

I tried to link to the commercial.  I found it on youtube, in case someone hasn't seen it.

I think that commercial is hilarious and that she needs to get over herself. That's a but ridiculous IMO.

What is FFS?  And BSC?  I've seen those on here a lot and always wondered what they stand for.

It's very contagious and it's going around bad this year.

I hear that the only effective treatment is surgical removal of the asss-stick.

Yeah, this is a bit ridiculous.

I think she needs to not rely on commercials to teach her child proper behavior.

I think she needs to lighten up.  I also think the commercial is hilarious.

Lame!  I'm much more concerned about my kid following the dog and going to the bathroom outside than some random commercial.  I've seen the commercial twice ever.  So unless it's playing on repeat at her house than I'm sure her toddler will not care about it.

I've never seen it so I doubt my kid has.  I am not concerned about is.

She's in for a long toddlerhood if she's worried about Clorox telling her kid it's ok to poop in the tub.

DS doesn't really watch tv. I watch a moderate amount and have not seen it.  I bet she also complained about Lily cursing on Modern Family.

Which was HI-larious, btw!

Does she really think that a 30 second commercial could randomly teach her child something like that? She seems a little far fetched here.

Hold on, I need a step stool. ::puts up step stool against wall with the thought sitting on it::

Oops, cant reach it, let me get a ladder ::brings over ladder and props it up::

Dammit, I need to get the extra long ladder for painting cathedral ceilings ::waddles over with ladder with DH helping at other end::

FFS, I can paint over the Sistine Chapel but still cannot reach the same conclusion.

This was also my diagnosis.

Tell her that her 2 year old shouldn't be watching tv.

...it's funny.

tell her that she should be ashamed that her toddler is watching that much tv at such an impressionable age. 

and now for something completely different

There are worse things a toddler can pick up from a tv commercial. If she's that concerned, she shouldn't be letting her child watch tv at all.

What about the huggies commercial where the boy pees all over the bedroom firehose-style? Oh no!

What about that one commercial with the baby in the walker zooming through the streets? Yikes!

How about the etrade commercial where the baby is using the computer unsupervised? lol

Someone need to unclench.

This is why I heart digital cable. I fast forward through the commercials so my kid won't get any ideas about where his poop belongs.

 

Seriously though, she needs to calm down. That commercial was funny.

NewFamily09

Glad to hear I'm not a horrible unconcerned parent for thinking it was a very funny commercial.  When I read her post, my first thought was that she's truly not very intelligent.  I don't know why- I just get that kind of impression when people write stuff like that.
