Learn more about the 'hidden hazard' of kids getting injured from televisions falling on top of them and how to secure your furniture and TV so that your kids are safe. Unfortunately, more kids are getting hurt from falling televisions in recent years. Five children have died in Houston in the past four months from falling TVs and three children have died in New York.

Is your TV and TV stand secure? Would it tipover if your toddler tried to climb on it?
