Coca-Cola Captures Young Parenthood Perfectly

A recent Coca-Cola advertisement from Argentina has gone viral for one simple reason: it is the truth. Watch and enjoy.

Being a parent is frustrating, but the rewards could not be greater. The more my children frustrate me, the more I find myself wanting to love them and see them grow and mature. I know this is only a commercial, but what it captures is perfect.

It is also Biblical:

Behold, children are a  heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. … Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them. (Psalm 127:3,5)

In a world that says children are a nuisance and get in the way of what’s really important, I’m thankful that Coca-Cola captures what most parents really feel. We may get angry and frustrated, but we wouldn’t have it any other way.

QUESTION: What are your reactions to this commercial? Leave your thoughts in the comments!
