TheTruth.com is airing a commercial that is OFFENSIVE (in the least) to families of premature babies. They are calling preemies SCARY, SCRAWNY, PRUNY, and compare them to \"GERBILS but with less hair\". The commercial shows cartoon preemies escaping from their incubators and dancing in circles, ribs showing and faces sunk in. THEY ARE MAKING A COMEDIC CARTOON AND A CATCHY TUNE OUT OF OUR CHILDREN\'S SUFFERING. Tobacco is a cause of prematurity, but DEFINITELY NOT THE ONLY CAUSE. PLEASE SIGN TO HELP GET OUR POINT ACROSS TO THETRUTH.COM, AND GET THIS COMMERCIAL OFF THE AIR!

I am a mother of a 24-week premature baby. My son was born early ONLY from natural causes, and had nothing to do with tobacco or anything of the sort. This commercial is EXTREMELY offensive to my family and I who watched my son fight for his life for over 4 months. There are other ways for The Truth to get their message across WITHOUT exploiting our sons and daughters.
