Oh man that almost broke my heart into like 3000 pieces, Only cause I thought straight away about my son and how he would react in that situation. I guess it does really hit home though, Very strong point!

they weren't acting she really left him for the commercial.. people thought it was cruel.. I don't know why they don't do that with drunk drivers too who kill people. just last week a mother of two young children was murdered by a drunk driver.. wonder why not show her crushed skull bleeding and her kids after learning they are now motherless!
at least smoking is a choice, dying to a drunk driver ISN'T..
I hate hypocrisy...

^ Well Yes I agree, I think the reasoning of the ad should have been open to all types of reckless acts in which causes reckless deaths. I was affected by the ad in more the one ways anyhow even though the point was smoking it still tickled my mind to feel really down knowing what my son will do if I wasn't here at his vulnerable age

I think it is good. Stuff like that has to hit the audience hard, especially in regards to alcohol and cigarettes (which KILL you!). They have a similar style for fire alarms in home and the THINK adverts: hard hitting approach. But it is needed.
People in general need to know (or at least be reminded) that these things can cause so much harm. Best way to do so is by showing them, without the safety gloves!
Someone said to the Prophet, "Pray to God against the idolaters and curse them." The Prophet replied, "I have been sent to show mercy and have not been sent to curse." (Muslim)
I don't think adverts like this work much on smokers, if they wanted to give up i'm sure the fact that the packet saying 'smoking kills' is enough as well as them minging pictures of black lungs and stuff. In my experience the majority of smokers don't give up because they think it won't happen to them (as in cancer and all the rest of the problems).
The believer has four characteristics: if he is afflicted by any misfortune, he remains patient and steadfast. If he is given anything, he is grateful. If he speaks , he speaks the truth. If he passes judgment on any issue,he is just .

Well, in the European union more deaths are cuased by passive smoking than drunk driving.
And they do show a lot of commercial aimed at peventing drunk driving here. There was an ad just like the one you posted not too long ago, a baby girl crying in her bed after having lost both of her parents in a car crash caused by a drunk driver. And it was grouped with another commercial showing a young man crying in a prison cell.
Oh, the example they used iz real sad But maybeh, hopefulleh, parents will learn from this and quit smokin if they truly care for their kidz! :><:

^I'm sure parents wouldn't deliberately leave their children alone in a crowd, or would they?

I think it's a good reminder, except the fact that they used it for smokers only.
Alcohol is a bigger problem.

I must admit that I used this commercial on my little niece to frighten her from letting go of our hands or talking to strangers as she has the habit of doing.. she is very outgoing and talks to random people and is constantly running off...
It has a horrifying impact on her I kind of regretted showing it to her as she constantly asks me if the little boy found his mommy or a stranger took him away...
I don't know why I get so easily emotionally upset when it comes to kids, just the other day this 8 year old girl was found murdered and placed in a bag.. It is very jarring to me really. I feel the most harshest penalty should be imposed on criminals from all classes...
May Allah swt have mercy on us, it is a cruel ugly world we live in..

It's not that bad , They only took a couple of seconds.
Reuniting with her mother has probably made him really happy that he forgot about the whole thing.
