Parents know, that McDonald’s restaurants are not the best place for their kids to eat out, but on the other hand, it may still be better than other children’s caprices. So if you don’t want to own a Tarantula, ride a turbo-coaster or watch some dumb children movie – ” Make a deal!”.
Quite an interesting advertising approach, however hookedonads.com team doesn’t recommend taking your kid there. Did you know that McDonald’s spends approximately $1.4 billion annually on advertising, most of which is directed at pre-teens? In the movie “Super Size Me”, Spurlock jokes that he will battle the socialization of his children by punching them in the face every time they pass a McDonald’s so that the golden arches do not elicit happy memories.

…or alternatively:
“No, We’re not going to Fuzzy-Wuzzies.”
“Sorry, you’re too short to ride the roller-coaster yet.”
“No, I’m not buying you the tarantula.”
Surely it’s better for parents to learn to say no to their children, rather than bribing them or distracting them with junk food?
