WASHINGTON–The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has opened a public awareness campaign to raise notice to the dangers of falling furniture and televisions. 

The campaign gives alerts to parents regarding danger of unsecured furniture and also provides tips to help safeguard heavy furniture. 

According to the CPSC, ten children have been killed already past few years by falling TVs. In 2005 more than 3,000 children younger than 5 years old were treated in emergency rooms due to heavy injuries associated with television tip-over.
