The techniques and methods used to advertise to the youth, convincing the kids that there isn’t a bad side to products and foods being advertised. The advertisers twist the truth to try to influence the youth, they use many different objects to help draw the youth in. “Marketing and Advertising” shows that not only do advertising corrupt the youth, they also make them make unhealthy decisions.

Which leads to the following question, if possible in the future, should genes become patented?

Corporate giant’s advertisements influence teens and persuade their parents to buy the product that they want to sell and say it’s the next big thing.

The feedback has been absolutely tremendous. Companies spend about $17 billion annually marketing to children, a staggering increase from the $100 million spent in 1983.

In recent years, the food industry in the US has viewed children and adolescents as a major market force. As a result, children and adolescents are now the targets of intense, specialized food marketing and advertising endeavors. Food marketers are absorbed in youth as consumers because of their spending capability, their purchasing impact, and as future adult consumers.
