Shame on you NBC/Dateline. I am watching My Kid Would Never Do That: Stranger Danger and during a commercial break you air a Loreal commercial which seems to sexualize a model who looks like she couldn't be over 14 years old! Why is this okay?!

      Thank you for that report this evening.. I hope you will reshow it on a less busy/non holiday weekend when more parents and families are home and can watch it. I only caught the last half hour, but made my 9 year old daughters watch it with me, and I pray that the message sunk in even more!
      Natalie- I cried with you when your son forgot what he has been taught even briefly too...every mom in America was with you!

      Thank you again!

        How can I re-watch this with my kids? I've been trying to get it to come up on different sites but I can't figure out how.
