Dear Sir or Madam,

I am writing to complain about a commercial which appeared during the children's programme "Tom and Jerry" on Channel 9.

Yesterday, at four in the afternoon, my five year-old son was watching his favorite cartoon, when during the break there was a Quilmes beer commercial on. The advertisement included young adults drinking heavily, dancing in a suggestive way, and behaving in an obscene manner. Of course, my son wondered why the people were acting like that and if he could have that drink as well.

I do not think such content is suitable for young children, and I would be very grateful if you could display commercials appropriate for kids during the "Tom and Jerry" show.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours faithfully,

Mary Higgers
