Disney Channel
Inappropriate Commercial Aired During Young Children's Show

TV & Radio

The ad being run on Disney XD, which appears to be sponsored by the Democratic Party regarding tolerance for gays is totally inappropriate for the audience. My 8 year old twins enjoy watching Phineas and Ferb and this commercial came on at least twice during the show. The commercial shows several girls talking and the point is you should choose your words carefully and not say "that's so gay".

I certainly agree with the message, but do not think this is an appropriate topic for younger elementary school children to worry about. We will have that discussion with our children when they are older and can understand a little better. They have asked me what the commercial means and said they don't understand.

We will no longer be watching this channel. The media is forcing our children to grow up too quickly and it should not be forced on parents through these type of commercials.
