• These categories consist of two separate groups: “TV-Y” and “TV-Y7” (young children through age 7),
and “TV-G” through “TV-MA” (everybody else).
• The restrictions for these two groups work independently: If a household includes very young children
as well as young adults, the TV parental guidelines must be set up separately for each age group. (See
page 54.)
