In response to Dan Olivera

Great post Dan, I agree, this is a difficult call to make. It reminds me of the child labor issues faced in the developing world. Sometimes children have to work or they will starve. While the idea of children losing their childhood to a life of drudgery is terrible, I would say that a child dying due to malnutrition is an even greater tragedy. The junk-food advertising in schools issue is much less serious than the child labor issue, but it is certainly an important one. I guess that I would support the ads for the time being, but I would put pressure on the schools to seek out healthy sponsors. Who do you think would make a good sponsor?
