Bayer‘s Actron Pediatrics, the Analgesic For Children, was promoted in Argentina in 2006 with a series of print and poster advertisements featuring children in situations normally only faced by adults: a crashed car, a baby of questionable parentage, an affair, and having a guest turn up at your party wearing your outfit.
A crashed car brings on a headache for boy
A brown baby brings on a headache for boy.
An affair brings on a headache for boy and girl
An identical dress brings on a headache for party girl
