My son (who is about to be 6)…

an ad for Coach sneakers came on while he was watching something. He threw his hands in the air and said “ah, it’s JUST sneakers! It’s not even that serious!… WHO CARES!” Then he looked at me and said “ads try to make it seem like we should care about things that don’t even matter”

Smarter than some adults I know 🤷🏻‍♀
