Summary of alcohol and tobacco

Alcohol and tobacco advertising is such a hot topic because, it is shown to and influences many people, of all ages. This is including the younger generations. Many people have a strong opinion on this, as it is a very hot topic. Should advertising for these products be allowed in our magazines or on our TV commercials? Some think no, because it is a dangerous example to children and influences them to try drinking or smoking. This can have very bad effects on children or young adults, and cause them to become addicted to cigarettes and/or alcohol and therefore lead to an unsuccessful life. A celebrity in a popular movie which is a young child’s role model could be showed smoking and influence the child to try this unhealthy habit. There are many other ways to influence children to become “cool” or like their favorite celebrity, magazines, TV, commercials, movies, etc. Should we allow this to be in plain sight? No, we should not.
