I suggest that you remove the television from your house.

Most children in the United States grow up watching 3+ hours of television daily. Study after study has shown that children are influenced by what they watch on television. One study that is only about 10 years old correlated the rise in consumption of mass-market/junk foods to a six to nine month delay of the introduction of television in the area.

The overwhelming majority of commercial television programming is trash. Remove the rot from the environment before introducing an impressionable infant.

Rather than fight a losing battle trying to be the household TV Censor, excise the corruption entirely.

While it is most unlikely that you will adopt this technique, it is effective – and healthy.

Good luck. I wish you well but envy you not.
