• 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
guidelines must be set up separately for each age group. (See next step.)
