That Keeley car advert

Where the kid keeps saying "Hi Keeley", AIBU to think that it's not a selling point to show a kid unable to interact with the real world including her mum and only be happy when talking to a car screen?

I thought the name was Geeley Blush

My first thought was how rude they were to their mum and how I would react if they were my kid.

My second thought was wondering why they were the only kid to wear a black tank top with white piping and everyone else wearing plain black - which leads me to the lightbulb moment that both kid and parent think kid is too special/gifted for such a school and shouldn't taint themselves with real life connections.

Third thought - parents, kid and car can feck off, as can the car manufacturers and advertisers. From those thoughts I guess I'm not their target audience 😂😂

It probably is Geeley. I agree with all your points.

It's especially disappointing as a talking car should be like Knight Rider, not something that caters to annoying misanthropes.
