Advertising Junk Food to Kids

The federal government won't ban or limit advertising of junk food geared towards children. We think that trying to help the obesity crisis in kids by setting limits for them is important, and that junk food ads for children undermines their ability to lead a healthier life. Some people say that advertising towards children, who may not be able to make informed nutritional decisions, is wrong no matter what the food ad is for. What do you think?
