Stereotyping is very popular in lots of countries it can be gender, race, sexual and so on. As this advertisement brought up something special which is child stereotyping. The caption has clearly written that finding the right investment is not child’s play. This is basically stereotyping child that they think that child couldn’t earn money or even earn money. As why the stereotype took place in this advertisement it is because lots of people think that children is not suitable for earning money and they trying to tell us that children is not mature enough to do so.

In this case lots of us thought of that too we always think that children should always be protected and they are not mature enough to do things that we think it is way too mature for them. This action will lead us to stereotyping them, but why can’t they make money or even do investment we always stop them to do so just because we think that they are not suitable but doesn’t mean that it is really not suitable for them.

Most of us will think that it is impossible for children to earn money but the point being is that we stereotype them by their age not their brain so we can’t judge them by how old they are. Fraser Doherty is one of the best examples he began at age 14, by using his grandmother recipes to make homemade jam and sell to neighbours. By 16, he’d created a huge demand for the stuff by tweaking the recipes on his own and calling it “SuperJam”. he was soon after approached by a reputable supermarket chain in the UK in 2007, who offered to stock his product in all 184 of its stores and soon enough he hit 1.2 million in sales. The other example is Cameron Johnson, at the age of 11 he was told to design an invitations for a party and they were impressed by others and soon enough the neighbour offering him money for other designing jobs and he took the money he made from the greeting cards formed his first online business, SurfingPrizes.com. The site, a pay-per-ad toolbar service, paid off big to the tune of $300,000–400,000 per month.
