Picture your parents. On the Internet. Scrutinizing your professional life and sharing their thoughts on your creative efforts with all of cyberspace. I'm dialing my therapist just thinking about it.

Check out My Son Does Advertising, where Manuel's mom and Max's dad, back home in Europe, offer up reviews (in their native tongue, with subtitles) of their sons' projects for clients like Ikea, McDonald's, Maxim and Post-It.
