The Census Bureau has been probing the daily life of children in occasional surveys that began in the early 1990s--and it shows. One of the areas examined in the first survey and repeated in every survey since is television rules--whether parents restrict the television viewing of their children. A lot has happened technologically since the early 1990s, but the survey, unfortunately, does not ask about the even bigger issues for parents--computers, video games, and cell phones. Time for an update.
