WASHINGTON (AP) - Two-thirds of parents said they are very concerned about sex and violence the nation's children are exposed to in the media, and there would be broad support for new federal limits on such material on television, a survey says.
Yet the report, released Tuesday by the nonpartisan Kaiser Family Foundation, found that two in three parents said they already closely track their children's television viewing and use of the Internet and video games.
Only one in five parents conceded they should do a better job — about the same fraction who said their own children see a lot of inappropriate material. Most said they, as well as their children's teachers and friends, have far more influence over their children than the media do.
