It is hard to imagine that a company knowingly advertises toys for children during a show that affirms and promotes the homosexual and transgender lifestyles and other inappropriate behavior.

This very young boy appeared in a Hasbro advertisement playing with several toys during the November 5, 2011 9:30 pm episode of Degrassi. Click here to see the full ad that appears to be co-opted with Chevrolet which had discontinued advertising on Degrassi. Florida Family Association is communicating with General Motors regarding their advertising on Degrassi.

Hasbro advertised the following toys on Degrassi during recent weeks: Monopoly, Battleship Game, Bop It, Connect 4 Launchers, Nerf toys, Operation Game, Simon Flash Game and Yahtzee.

It is disturbing to know that young children who would be interested in buying a Nerf gun or Connect 4 Launcher are also seeing the inappropriate content and lifestyle promotions on Degrassi episodes like the scene to the left where the aggressively homosexual Riley explicitly kisses numerous young males?
Hasbro is in effect legitimizing this immoral behavior by imaging their toys to Degrassi’s adolescent audience. |
MTV is airing through their Teen Nick channel for kids episodes of the show called Degrassi which affirms and promotes the transgender lifestyle and other inappropriate behavior to an audience of millions of young teens and children.
Teen Nick has included promotions on Degrassi that directed children and teens to TheTrevorHelpline.com and PFLAG (Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays) which encouraged them to embrace a different sexual identity that may stay with them for life.
Not only is Teen Nick affirming the homosexual and transgender lifestyles in the content of the program itself but also includes promotions during Degrassi which lead children and teens toward, not away from embracing these behaviors.
Hasbro must know the youthful age of the audience that they are deliberately targeting yet they continue to legitimize such immoral behavior by imaging their toys with multitudes of scenes involving homosexuality, transgender identity, drug abuse, sex toys, etc.
