Well, in business, it's a good investment because when you aim at children, it's more profitable for businesses. But as a parent, I believe it's really bad for kids because they get emotionally attached to the things they advertise. For example, with a Barbie doll, if kids are always emotionally invested in these material things, they always try to convince their parents to buy them a Barbie. And if parents fail to do that, then a kid can get emotionally hurt. This will lead them to maybe depression or they will try to isolate themselves from their parents, and this will impact the parent-child bond.
