Hello,
        "15 Things You Must Do For Your Baby" [#5]

        "Turn Off the Tube"
        "Infants as young a 2 months old are intested in the visual stimulation of 
television.  But a new study find sthat the more TV children watch before age 3, 
the likelier they are to have attention problems at age 7.  In fact, there is a 10% 
increase for each hour of television a child watches per day.  'The American 
Academy of Pediatrics recommended that children under 2 not watch TV, and based on 
our study, I agree with that,' say study author Dimitri Christakis, M. D., of the 
Children's Hospital and Regional Medical Center in Seattle."
