Doctor-Recommended, Parent-tested, Kid-approved, Made by a Schoolteacher

 None of these phrases mean anything at all.  So what if a doctor recommended a product?  We have all heard of doctors that do or support crazy things, or are a quack at best.  “Parent tested” means that probably someone who was an adult and hard up for some cash tried their product, or better yet, the people who created the product tested it on themselves.  “Kid approved” is a funny one.  I can stamp “kid approved” on a box of sugar cubes or anything in the candy isle.  There are even some foods that we consider healthy that . . . gasp . . . kids might actually like.  All it means is that some kid somewhere gave his stamp of approval, or a grunt while watching television.  “Made by a schoolteacher” is another funny one.  So what?  Since not all schoolteachers everywhere are the authority on everything, all this means is someone trying to add credibility to a product in a way that sounds quality but, when you think about it, doesn’t make sense.
