NO TV FOR INFANTS OR YOUNG TODDLERS

FROM DECEMBER UPDATE OF AUTHOR'S ADDITIONAL NOTES on ERS website:

ITERS Item #23. Use of TV, video and/or computer 1.3, 3.3

Since the American Academy of Pediatrics states that children under the age of two should not be allowed to view television, due to persuasive research indicating negative effects for these youngest children, change the age listed in these indicators from 12 to 24 months.
