Protective parents

RadioShack makes you wish you could choose your family.

There comes a time when a parent must sit their kids down, and give them the ‘ol talk about the birds and the bees. This is not one of those times. But close enough. In these two spots for RadioShack, by GSD&M in the U.S., cringe-worthy parent-kid exchanges take place, with one young teen confessing something he ought to have kept to himself and a father giving his son a warning that some could misconstrue as being mildly inappropriate. Like they say, you really can’t choose your family.
