Legal and General advert on MN - can someone tell them that starting a list of a mother's important features with "cook" is not going to win them any customers?

The ad on the right hand side starts with "What's a mum worth?" then says something like "what is a mother?" and lists "cook, cleaner ... carer" (have't got the list exact as there's now a different ad)

WTF! The idiot ad person who wrote that ad may think his (her?) mother is worth a lot for doing the cooking, but I suspect there are a fair few mums on MN that think their worth as parents is for so much more than cooking and cleaning?

AIBU? I have to add I'm knackered from being up all night feeding a demanding baby and playing in the park all day with a toddler, so maybe I'm being over sensitive. But it seems to me that this ad is almost designed to rile people on here.

The clocks didn't go forward, they went back, to 1950.

That's obviously all we're good for.

Keep hitting reload but can't get the damn thing to come back, but I'm pretty sure "taxi driver" was on there too.
