Is it ok to use children in advertisements?

       In my opinion, it definitely isn't okay to use children in advertisements. Young people seem to be innocent and truthful, especially little kids. This fact is often used by many companies to make a good advertisement. But, it isn't actually okay to do that. These children didn't know about the product which they are advertising and it isn't their choice to do it. Using toddlers in the ads is only the next stupid publicity stunt that manipulates people to buy something. In the future, these kids may experience bad consequences by participating in some product advertisement which isn't good to be associated with. Because of that, I think that using unconscious children in advertisements isn't okay at all. 

Why is it hard to admit we've been wrong?

 People have trouble with admitting that they've been wrong because they actually hate being wrong. We always associate being wrong with being stupid or ignorant. Our ego doesn't let us to be seen as such. Being right gives us a lot of satisfaction, a feeling that we are better and smarter than others. I think that you all know that feeling when you have a long argument with somebody and it finds out that you were right, and I also think that you hate being on the other side. Admitting that we've been wrong feels embarrassing and awful. That's why we so often avoid these difficult to say words: "Sorry, I have been wrong"

Why most people root for the underdog?

 In my opinion, people often root for the underdog, because of the fact, that we want to see that people can deal with really difficult challenges. The victory of an underdog will show us that everything is possible, that every problem in our life, can be solved. The success of the weaker people can motivate us to do things that we thought are too hard for us "if they did it, why can't I do it". We often see ourselves as underdogs in everyday situations, we think that we are too weak for many difficult challenges that our life gives us. To sum up, rooting for the underdog is actually rooting for ourselves.
