Kids Viewing Habits and Satellite TV

Satellite TV creates a whole new set of problems for parents who prefer their kids to not watch certain shows. Its difficult enough with cable and free to air stations, but satellite presents an even bigger set of issues.

So, as a parent, do you limit television watching to times when you are present? And does that mean you now have to sit through the loud and boisterous children’s programming that sets your teeth on edge, just to make sure your kids don’t see something inappropriate?

Not with satellite TV technology! Since the early 1990s, more and more people have been noticing the trend in television to offer programming full of things not suitable for kids. And more people have been doing something about the programming offered by both broadcast and satellite TV.

The Children’s Television Act of 1990 required providers to offer educational programming. Later requirements regarding television suitability included the ratings system that warns parents when unsuitable content may be one.

Despite laws and rules, however, the buck ultimately stops with you, the parent, when it comes to protecting your child. And a great way of protecting your household from unwanted or unsuitable satellite TV programming is through a V-chip which can block certain programming.

All TVs made after 2000, and which is over thirteen inches in size will have a V-chip. Parents can activate the V-chip in their television in order to filter out unwanted satellite TV programming.

Parents are able to select the types of programmes to be allowed without using a code on the remote. In this way, content which is restricted by the V-chip is controlled by a password, much the same way email or other computer access is.

The V Chip is designed to work in synch with parental guidelines that rate all programmes. Programs are rated in the following manner:

TV-Y: All Children

TV-Y7: Children seven and up

TV-G General audience, similar to a G movie

TV-PG Similar to a PG movie

TV-14 Older teens, similar to PG-13 movie

TV-MA Similar to rated R movie

By coupling the rating system with the V-chip technology, parents can choose to lock all content that is rated TV-PG and above with a password. That way, if a small child were left watching a program for a few moments, even if they got hold of the remote, they could not turn it to unsuitable content while mom or dad is out of the room!

Coral Cal Daily Sachets (As Seen On TV) by Today’s Health – 30 Sachets $22.95 Drink yourself healthy with these life changing, easy to use ”tea bags” This sachet of ocean coral and minerals is meant to be used like using a tea bag. The coral mineral sachet’s have no ”tea” in them. They consist of pure coral minerals. You simply place the little sachet bag in a quart of water, wait five minutes and start to enjoy the benefits of this super antioxidant drink, FEEL BETTER FAST! Would you like a healthier life style? Minimize the risk of heart disease, cancer, osteoporosis, and other degenerative diseases by using this simple solution. Dr. Richard Viogt talks about how he had shoulder pain for twenty five years. He took many different medicines for his pain, but nothing worked. He began adding the CORAL CAL DAILY to everything he drank, and the pain is gone. His mother-in-law had burning in her feet for many years. Dr. Voigt gave her CORAL CAL DAILY and the burning in her feet has gone away. CORAL CAL DAILY reduces free radicals, helps your body get the proper mineral balance, and reduces the body acid levels. Chlorine, found in most of our water supplies is a free radical, which is known to cause cancer. CORAL CAL DAILY sachets can netralize chlorine. Drinking water that has been treated with CORAL CAL DAILY will free up the hydrogen neurons, allowing your body to heal itself, because you are getting more oxygen to every cell. Drinking water is good for you. Most Americans are in a state of dehydration most of the time. For good hydration one should drink one ounce of water per day for every half-pound of weight. Say you weigh 160 pounds, you should be drinking 80oz. of water per day, that is only 8 10oz glasses a day. Remember, body fluids of healthy individuals are alkaline ( with a high pH value). Most degenerative diseases have been linked to mineral and calcium deficiencies that result in low pH levels. Cancer, for example, thrives in an acidic medium, and can not servive in an alkaline medium. Drinking this treated water will raise your pH level and give you highly absorbable amounts of important minerals. Coral Cal Daily uses premium grade, 100% pure, ionized bioavailable coral minerals, collected from the fossilized coral granules of Okinawa, Japan, with ecological safety overseen by the Japanese government for the protection of the coral reefs and marine life. Coral Cal Daily naturally provides us with important marine nutrients. When added to water (or any liquid) highly absorbable ionized marine minerals are released, creating delicious tasting, highly absorbant, alkalized water to hydrate your body. Suggested Use: Place one sachet into 1 to 2 liters of water or your favorite beverage. Gently stir or shake. Leave sachet in liquid.
