I remember "It's 10 pm, do you know where your children are?" being asked every night before the local news.
'Stand By Me' was a movie about four boys disappearing for a weekend and not one parent was arrested.
I TOLD YOU LAST NIGHT, NO!
Wasn’t that to remind parents that they had kids since most were taking drugs or alcohol to cope with life?
You say the first one like it’s a GOOD thing, that campaign has led to ridicule of an entire generation, and you point to that like it’s a good thing…?
I dunno if "remembering" something is so strong an act as to imply an opinion, positive or negative.
If so, it brings a whole new context to the term "never forget"
Dude without thar ad don't think my parents would have come looking for me.
My parents didn't come looking, it was just if you came in the door after they got that announcement they knew to beat us. If we were in before it they didn't have to do anything in their mind
It was only after that ad when my mom come looking for us. She only beat us if she couldn't find us.
Only rule we had was be home when the street lights came on.
