  Age should always be considered when creating an advertisement. There are Federal Communications Commission set regulations that limit advertisements during childrens programming, according to the FCC website. Children are extremely easier to persuade than adults, and therefore, it may be considered unethical in certain circumstances.
   The FCC limits the amount of time commercials can run during children's programs. For example, programmers must not air more than 12 minutes of commercail time during an hours worth of programming. Furthermore, according to the website, the products that are being promoted must not relate to the programming.
