One Million Moms not having Radio Shack

One Million Moms (in reality, not even close to one million) are not so happy with the new commercials from Radio Shack which feature a dad approaching his teenage son about "the talk."

Via email:

Radio Shack is offending families with not one but two inappropriate commercials. Both ads use sexual innuendos and include children. Parents find this type of advertising disgusting.

In "Laundry," a dad enters the room with a laundry basket and says to his son, "Mom just finished laundry. Anything you want to tell us?" The boy has a guilty look on his face and replies, "Sometimes I have these funny feelings and I'm not sure what's going on, but I looked online and it said it was normal." The dad has a surprised look on his face and is almost speechless, but says, "Uh, you left your phone in your jeans and it went through the wash."

In "The Talk," the dad approaches his son and says, "I think it's time we had a little talk about 'protection.' I know you just want to get out and show it off, but you can't just go swingin' it around all willy-nilly, trying to impress the girls. You gotta be careful." He then displays and refers to a tablet, remarking "this glass is fragile."

Why would Radio Shack deliberately turn off consumers with sex-laden advertisements?

OMM goes on to urge folks to write Radio Shack about the offending ads" and not buy from Radio Shack.

I think they're cute. Watch below:
