Child Lock on TV and Remote is bust

My son broke the tv remote last night and the TV(RCA) had the front panel child lock on, so we can't turn on the TV!! I bought a universal remote, but the instructions state the tV should be on to programme! Other than buying a new RCA remote does anyone know if the child lock can be deactivated?

it doesnt need to be on, just program the remote like the instructions say. When you program it right, the tv will turn on, instead of off like it says in the instructions.

Also what brand / model of universal remote did you buy? if your TV is an RCA, the RCA universal remotes are already pre-programed to run most of their TV/VCR's

You were right. We now have the children's channels again.
Thanks
