New legislation for advertising?

I've just watched some videos on the next blog to mine..family videos where the author is unafraid to film his young grandchildren. It was wholesome stuff, and being in the US , no teenage cleavages on view or mini skirts for 7 year olds as you are constantly bomabarded with in the street in the UK. I am aware that there are unscrupulous and evil people out there who expose children, with and without the consent of parents. I would never film or identify my kids on my blog, or anywhere on the internet.

Apparently there are enough parents out there to have made a tiny impact on what is shown on tv and advertising. I have complained on a few occasions about advertising (as being too sexualising for children) and have only once made an impact. I got some adverse reactions to this by people who I feel were either too naive or inexperienced to gather the reasons for my approach to the complaint. According to what I have just heard, it's a matter of months before ther govenrnment enforces some stricter rules about what is shown in advertising and on tv. Amen to that, brother.
