I am sorry no. They put ratings on shows. I think you need to monitor things your kids watch and take advantage of the V chip.
Also when something inappropriate comes on TV don't just get mad. Explain to your kids why it is wrong and what the right thing to do is. They are never too young to warn about drugs.
And studies show toddlers and younger do not benefit from television.

Parents should take responsibility for their children
Didn't you ever hear of the V Chip
All televisions have them installed in the United States about the past 10 years. It is required by law by the telecommunications act of 1996.
Be a responsible parent. Learn to use the V Chip. Don't blame the network for something you should be controlling yourself.

No. You cant sue network television for teaching your kid about drugs. in fact, i find it a very good thing they talk about drugs because believe it or not.. in society nowadays.. you're child WILL be asked to do drugs either once or twice in their life. It's better they know about it through tv FIRST and you as a parent should talk to him/her of course.
THEN OF COURSE, if you're talkin about rap music videos.. then no, i don't support all the crazy rap music videos out there. now THOSEEE are really really disturbing.
but no, even in that case.. i dont believe you can sue because it's the rapper's freedom of speech.

extremely, i think of the only hting celebrities are coaching all people is that seems are the main serious component. it sort of sounds like celebs dont have any fricking brains left. no longer purely that, even though it additionally seems as though celebs dont care that they have a considerable result on little ones. in the event that they did, then why do they act the way they do? i think of that human beings like lindsay lohan, the spears, paris hilton, and all the stars alike could desire to be rid of there priveledges and spot how they result maximum of youthful lives. its ridiculous that television has consistent insurance on drug overdoses, anorexic celebs, rehab, and all the different bull crap bc back, it may impression an adolescent on making the incorrect judgements. i dont be attentive to the thank you to describe my evaluations in a rational way in this difficulty, yet now a days on each and every occasion im flipping interior the path of the channels and spot the "scoop" on celebs it purely pisses me off.

It's really up to you to teach your children about drugs at an appropriate age. It's your responsibility to make sure that young children only watch tv programmes that are appropriate for their age. Young children should never be allowed to watch TV unsupervised. It can't be used as a babysitter, you have to watch it with them. It's much more interesting to play with them than watch TV with them and much better for the kids as well.
