watch on the TV. For regular TV programs you can use USTV settings. USTV settings
lets you filter what content you want each age level, TV-Y, to TV-MA (refer to definitions

USTV
TV-Y (USTV) –For All Children
This program is designed to be appropriate for all children. Whether animated or
live-action, the themes and elements in this program are specifically designed for a very
young audience, including children from ages 2-6. This program is not expected to
frighten younger children.
TV-Y7 (USTV)- Directed to Older Children
This program is designed for children age 7 and above. It may be more appropriate for
children who have acquired the developmental skills needed to distinguish between
make-believe and reality. Themes and elements in this program may include mild fantasy
violence or comedic violence, or may frighten children under the age of 7. Therefore,
parents may want to consider the suitability of this program for their very young children.
Note: For those programs where fantasy violence may be more intense or more
combative than other programs in this category, such programs will be designated
TV-Y7-FV.
