We have an entertainment center and are in the process of buying a tv to put in it. the doors to the entertainment center close. 2 questions - should we secure the entertainment center to the wall? This thing is HEAVY...it's from Ethan Allen and solid wood. Does it need to be secured to the wall? I can't see any way that a child could pull it down, HOWEVER, I know nothing about this kind of thing. ALSO...what about the tv, specifically when the doors are open. Should we somehow screw the tv to the wall behind? (there is a hole in the back of the entertainment center).
Also, in our bedroom, we have a tv just sitting on a stand. Do we need to somehow secure this? If so, how? Are kids able to pull tvs down onto them?
I'm not asking this because i plan to let her just run around without supervision, but i just want to make sure that those moments when i have to go to the bathroom or she's out of my sight for a minute or two, won't be the time she has something fall down on her!
