Shocked mum Rebeca Seitz almost choked on her cornflakes when an explicit advertisement featuring a steamy sex scene flashed on to her television screen as she ate breakfast with her son.
The Florida mother-of-two was watching "Good Morning America" in her Naples home when an ad for ABC drama "Betrayal", featuring a pair of naked-looking actors, beamed into her living room.
"The GMA segment went to commercial and then, wham. Confusion. Disbelief. Did that just flash on my TV screen? In front of 8-year-old Andy?!" she wrote on her blog.
"This wasn't prime time. This was a commercial about a prime time show airing while we all enjoy cornflakes and coffee and wish our kiddos a good morning.
"My kid saw that ... Not because I took him to a movie wholly inappropriate for his age. Not because I quit parenting and just told him to turn on the TV at 10pm and watch whatever."
Ms Seitz then rewound the advertisement while her son was in another room, took a photo of the "Betrayal" scene and posted it to Facebook. But ironically the social media giant then removed it for violating their standards.
"Then Facebook notified me my picture had been "reported as inappropriate due to nudity". Now Facebook has removed my post. Thanks for the affirmation, Facebook," she wrote.
She also published a post about the incident called "Morning Sex" on her blog, protesting against simulated sex scenes during breakfast viewing and "glorifying the breaking of wedding vows as high drama and entertainment".
