Errr, yeah.
They put the toys with the meal so kids want to eat there. So the kids tell their parents “OH LOOK, I WANT THAT!!”
And then, the parents, not knowing how to say no to their children, take them there and then they complain when their kids end up fat.

Well hrm, if you’d learn to say NO to your children everytime they say “I WANT THAT” you wouldn’t be in this mess.
Don’t blame the company, they’re doing what every other company does. They’re trying to get customers. And by customers, they mean anyone. So if they can appeal to that screaming four year old with the mom who just wants the kid to shut up, hey, they’ll do it.

Honestly, there’s nothing wrong with it.
I loved them toys. But you know what, I didn’t eat at McDonald’s all the time, either.
I liked the Hot Wheels toys. And a few random others.
But I didn’t beg. I didn’t need it. Because my mom knew to tell me “NO.” She did it well.

Either way, blame the parents for letting their kids eat that.
Don’t get all mad at the company.
Geez.

It’s the VIDEO GAMES MAKE KIDS VIOLENT!! TV MAKES KIDS VIOLENT!! BLAH BLAH BLAH.

And it’s aggravating.
Because we can blame EVERYTHING except the real thing at fault.
Bah.
