Flip side is that it&#x27;s vile that we need a &quot;doctor&#x27;s authorization&quot; to even buy chemicals. While there certainly should be regulation to curb abusive advertising (e.g. fraud), it&#x27;s sad anyone would find it wrong to ask a doctor for drugs. The way things are set up, that&#x27;s exactly what many people are forced to do.<p>Also, nitpick, but the news and ads in general are almost certainly far more harmful (for your daughter; perhaps you, too) than hearing about ED meds.
