The Boston Marketing Club: A social gathering with a topic

Confident your child is safe watching a friendly game of baseball, you leave the room. When you return, your eight-year-old son is ogling a half-naked model caressing a light beer.
Even with parental controls for TV and the Web, provocative ads are still finding their ways into our children's consciousness. You breathed a deep sigh of relief when Joe Camel retired. Nevertheless, your daughter wants to know if you take the little purple pill.
Every month, the Boston Marketing Club brings the Greater Boston marketing community together to discuss a hot topic in a relaxed and social atmosphere. Join us at this month's Boston Marketing Club for a lively discussion about the lurid and insidious messages molding our children's minds. After we introduce the topic, our Connectors will poll you for your opinions. We'll discuss questions such as:
Have ads become more shocking, or is our moral compass broken?
Should we increase federal regulation of advertising?
What are my responsibilities, as a parent and a marketer?
Date: Wednesday, May 28, 2008
