How about a bill to fund parent education before children are born, rather than on individual things they may encounter afterwards. How about mandatory classes on how to childproof a home at a hospital or pre-natal care center? I didn't learn to not use a hair dryer in the bathtub from reading the label, I saw a PSA or maybe it was Sesame Street. Or here's an idea for retailers. Put some securing methods on the sales floor next to the big items and train your sales people to cross-sell. Websites, likewise. I bought a 50" LCD from CCity and was told about the joys of expensive HDMI cables, etc, but nothing about straps. I bought 5 7-foot bookcases in CA and the salesperson thoughtfully talked to me about earthquake straps. I bought a bunch from him, though I could have bought them from the local hardware store, later.

The law will not go after a parent that has gone through this
unless it was done with intent there are such things as accidents
but with this paper it might save a life so is it really going to
kill all of you to have one piece of paper in the box?????? You all
must not have a child.... I have 5 and would do anything to protect
them encluding child proofing my home that was done be for the
accident happened in our home. You all just need to think of the
other kids that parents that have no idea of the dangers not worry
what law will be passed.

Look I am sick of all of this the only thing that we are trying to do is let parents know of the dangers that is all this law will not make you use any of the straps it just tells of the warnings like a hair dryer has..... If i or any of the other 175 parents knew we would have taken every measure to protect our child. so again thankyou for reading this and helping in protecting our children Chloe's mommy

Just another stupid law to protect the idiots from hurting
themselves.Lets throw them another safety net. Anyone who is small
enough for this to effect probably can not read yet,and lack of
common sense by anyone else will not be decided by a law.

The 27" TV was on a stand. Does anyone have a picture of the stand and TV? I'd really like to see the set-up that killed this little girl.

Anything is going to tip over given enough weight or unbalance. I'm sorry about the kids that might have been hurt or killed from a fall, but this is total absurdity. You can't legislate or warn someone enough when it comes to accidents. If a product has been designed in a way where it falls over with little to no force, then the attorneys can line up to sue the manufacturers for the defective product. In this case, I'm sure the engineers designed the product to hold most sets without the unit falling over. Why are we as a people accepting these insane laws? Why?

My condolances to those who have suffered. For one, I think the
lawmakers waste way to much time digging up reasons to make such
laws. There cannot be a law for everything. Where does it end? Next
we will have home inspections and citations for a dirty shirt on
the floor. Someone could trip and break their head. Come on folks!
If you have small children, do something about that wobbly tv, or
your nick nacks set on the edge of a shelf. Even if you dont have
kids. I dont want my tv to fall on the floor! duh. But we cant
protect the world from the world with a million laws.

"always watch your child every second"?? How realistic is that? Be a responsible parent and childproof your home. This proposed legislation is just a way to punish parents after the fact, at a time when they are emotionally distraught and crushed with grief. Next thing you know, we'll all be required to put plastic caps on the electrical outlets and child locks on every cabinet. Those of you with children should do that anyway, but making it a law is just stupid. Who will enforce it; the house police?
