I have been a smoker for a long time. You know, I’ve been watching these Philip Morris legislation required commercials advocating parental communication as the method for preventing children from smoking…and I’ve been thinking…while it is necessary for parents to communicate with their children, their words mean very little in comparison to their actions.
So here’s my idea for the new Philip Morris ad:
Parents
if you want your children to be non-smokers
don’t just talk about it.
Quit smoking.
As long as we’re in business
you’re wasting your breath.
