The breakfast cereal aisle of the grocery store is a delightful place with boxes decorated with Barbie, Ninja Turtles, and Batman. The boxes are filled with toys, special offers, and plenty of sugar in the cereal. Several parent groups are concerned about the marketing techniques, the sugar levels, and the diet of American children.

Discuss the ethics of the cereal manufacturers in their marketing approaches. What action would a firm in the social responsibility school take?
