Study: Kids' TV, computer habits start early

CNN reports on the Kaiser Family Foundation study:

"We found out that kids today are growing up absolutely immersed in electronic media in this country, starting at the youngest ages," says Kaiser's Vicky Rideout, lead author of the study. "[At] even just a few months old, they're watching TV, watching videos, using computers, playing video games."

Hey Kids! Get outside and get some fresh air! Go play and work up an appetite before dinner!

Besides, Mom and Dad need a little peace and quiet! The chaotic noise gets out of control when you've got Spongebob on the TV, a gameboy blip-bleeping, and the tapping and beeping of the computer. I came home from work to deal with this crazyness?

Unplug the kids for a while for their own good, and for Mom and Dad's peace-of-mind as well!
