Funny, but Ethical?

I recently ran across this advert as my friend on Facebook liked it and it became an instant hit within our group. At first, I was laughing to it too – it was witty and humorous. However, when I thought more about it it just didn’t feel right. I mean if every parent thought that way, that whenever their child becomes a little  difficult they should regret having the child, then many parents will actually feel negatively about their child. Yes, contraception is a big topic today but was it necessary for the condom marketers to choose this particular (unethical) strategy? Could they not have rather made people aware of the different STDs that could be transmitted during unsafe sex? Personally, I did get a little offended because I know in many parts of the world, children are still being abused and taken advantage of and this ad did not help break that struggle, but rather it re-enforced the idea that they are still inferior.
