The population was children's milk advertisements broadcast on television. The samples were the five advertisements for children's milk that were consumed the most in 2020, i.e. Enfagrow, Pediasure, Chil Kid Morinaga, Nestle Lactogrow, and SGM. The units studied were physical, syntactic, and thematic units. The study results showed that the advertisements for children's milk contain an implied ideology. The ideology was motherism ideology, where a mother is fully responsible for family integrity and domestic work. This was shown from the most dominant vocabulary that appeared in the advertisement, explanation of the milk, the role that is dominated by the mother, and scenes that occur in the advertisement.
