A report to the nation on home safety: The dangers of TV tip-overs.;Tip sheet: TV and furniture tip-overs.;Media release: One child dies every three weeks from a TV tipping over.

The webpage for this US report states: "Helping Kids Play Safely ... Protecting kids from the potential risk of tip-overs by making sure furniture and TVs are secured is an important way to help keep them safe. Why it Matters Between 2000 and 2010, on average, every three weeks a child dies from a TV tipping over. And nearly 13,000 more children are injured each year in the U.S. Top-heavy furniture, TVs and appliances can be unsteady, and if pulled or climbed on, they can tip over and seriously injure young children. Over the last ten years, injuries from TV tip-overs have risen by 31 percent. Young children are at greatest risk and seven out of ten children injured by TV tip-overs are 5 years old or younger. These tragedies are completely preventable with just a few simple precautions. Much like childproofing with a toddler gate or electrical socket cover, TV mounts and furniture straps are important steps to keep your family safe. Remember, a curious, determined child can topple a TV. Children playing with friends or pets could knock a TV over, while other kids might be tempted to climb up to reach items placed on or near a TV, such as remote controls or candy." This item has loose in the front of it a "Tip Sheet" which includes some of this advice: "Top safety tips to help prevent tip-over hazards - Check TVs - Assess the stability of the TVs in your home. - Secure TVs - Mount flat screen TVs to the wall to reduce the risk of TVs toppling off stands. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure you protect your wall and have a secure fit. - If you have a large, heavy, old-style cathode ray tube (CRT) TV place it on a low, stable piece of furniture. - Secure Furniture - Use brackets, braces or wall straps to secure unstable or top-heavy furniture to the wall. - Install stops on dresser drawers to prevent them from being pulled all the way out. Multiple open drawers can cause the weight to shift, making it easier for a dresser to fall. - Rearrange Household Items - Keep heavier items on lower shelves or in lower drawers. - Avoid placing remote controls, food, toys or other items in places where kids might be tempted to climb up or reach for them."
