Thanks for posting this video Steve. I found it quite moving especially as you can see the kids who have many different dissabilities singing together with real enthusiasm.
Many things make me cringe however this uplifting video certainly did not. As for using the word cute well I am astonished that anyone can find fault with that description.
If these were not children with varying dissabilities would anyone then object to them being called cute ? I think not. So I ask are Disabled children not allowed to be cute ?

I have no intention of detracting from the children's performance. As I have said already I find the ad inspiring, warm and uplifting. I just happen to dislike the word 'cute' in general.

cute (kyōōt)
adj. cut·er, cut·est

1. Delightfully pretty or dainty.
2. Obviously contrived to charm; precious
3. Shrewd; clever.

Perhaps it is the Insurance company that is being 'cute' as in definitions 2 and 3
