Make your children watch educational TV or they will become social rejects:

The video didn't work for me,all I heard was sounds of sheep bleating,some guy sounding really horny and a puppy whimpering. I don't even want to know what the video looks like.

I would pay to see the brainstorming session that led to this concept.

That's just so wrong....

Where did it air? Here in the US or somewhere else?

You think that's insulting? There's a billboard near where I live that says "STUDIES SHOW: CHILDREN WITH MARRIED PARENTS DO BETTER IN SCHOOL". It's signed by some church organization.

What studies?

You know, any actual children who hear such a message aren't going to understand the intent behind it (not that the intent behind it isn't already COMPLETELY ASININE)...they're going to feel bad for having a mom or dad who walked out on them or even died. And if they haven't either of those, they're going to make fun of children who do. "I saw a sign that says you're STUPID!"
