Which ads make you cry?

**prama** · September 14th, 2008, 11:50 PM

The girls in my mother's group were talking about ads that make us cry now that were mums..

Am curious to know what ads make you cry..

Mine are:
I think Kellogs Ironman, not sure, but the one that the teenage son doesnt say a word but helps his mum lift the sofa when she's vacumming, chase the dog, get the suitcase. I used to cry when I was pg, and hoped if I had a boy, I hope he grows up and helps me like this kid.

The anti-drug ad, where the little boy says he wants to grow up to play football and then they show him being zipped up.. It's so sad, when innocence is lost.

Yeah that anti-drug one makes me cry too. I have only seen it a couple of times though.

I cry when I see the anti-smoking one with the little girl talking to her dad while he's in the hospital bed and she says "you shoulda been there". I have tears just thinking about the ad. My DF is a smoker and his little girl keeps asking him to give up - he says he will but never does. I so hope that wont be him in the hospital one day with her saying similar things.

I cry during pretty much any baby add - the flying baby one - think it's for pain relief - any of the huggies ones over the years. I used to cry when I saw them because I wanted a baby so badly and it just wasn't happening. Now I cry cos my bub is here and I just can't believe it.

Ok I am a huge sook so cry at anything and everything....

Any ad with babies in it, so all the nappy ad's expecally ( sp?) the "must be love" ad's...
sungglers one with the baby in the crib and they are talking about all the cute sounds they make and then the baby fills it pants...

The biggest loser ad's before the show starts when you here about how they feel about been fat....

If there is any show or ad they shows a woman giving birth I and all tears....

yep the drug and smoking ad's

There would be heaps more just cant think of them ATM....

The TAC "Pictures of You" Ad

**Curly** · September 15th, 2008, 12:18 PM

The WorkCover ads! Where the little kid is waiting for Daddy and Dido is the background music...excuse me, feel misty just thinking about it.

I don't think its on anymore but the Golden Casket lotto one where the parents pay off their daughters mortgage - used to make me all emotional! Lol

Yeah, that one does it for me too.
Also, the Bonds Easysuit ad - that little boy is soooo adorable! I get a little lump in my throat when I see him asleep on that lambskin rug at the end. Awwwwww.

the one with the mum writing all the birthday cards for her baby daughter for years to come. I think it is for cervical or breast cancer or something. i always miss the message at the end cos im blubbering so hard. or cos i flip the channel if others are there to save face.

and the nappy one. "it must be Love" when a tear rolls down the mums cheek.

quick someone get me the tissue box!

I had quite a few tears last night when the new telstra mobile ad for video calling came on. The son video calls his parents to introduce his new baby who arrived early its really touching a tired elated new mum brand new bub proud dad with tears in his eyes and doating teary grandparents watching on a video call. Really sweet

**shellbell3** · September 15th, 2008, 01:56 PM

Heaps! The workcover one, anti-drug ones, kids helpline one, the one the used to be on for childhood foundation, the cervical cancer one, I'm getting tears now thinking of them all!

There is an ad in Vic at the moment where a woman is trying to buy some basic essentials in the supermarket but doesn't have enough money - one of the items is medicine for her sick child. She says she can't afford it. She is crying. I always tear up at that one.
