Children are very impressionable and it is important to control what their minds are exposed to. The following guidelines for parents to monitor television viewing for children.

• Remove television sets from children's bedrooms.
• Discourage television viewing for children younger than 2 years, and encourage more interactive activities, such as talking, playing, singing, and reading together.
• View television programs along with children, and discuss the content.
• Set a weekly viewing limit. At the beginning of the week, have your child select programs you approve of from television schedules.
• Monitor the shows children and adolescents are viewing.
• Rule out TV at certain times such as meal times and sleeping hours.
• Remember that children learn from their parents. If you watch a lot of TV, chances are your child will also.
