Do wireless phones pose any special risks
to children?
The FDA/FCC website states that "the scientific
evidence does not show a danger to users of
wireless communication devices, including
children." The FDA/FCC website further states
that "some groups sponsored by other national
governments have advised that children be
discouraged from using wireless phones at all".
For example, the Stewart Report from the United
Kingdom ["UK"] made such a recommendation
in December 2000. In this report a group of
independent experts noted that no evidence exists
that using a cell phone causes brain tumors or other
ill effects. [The UK's] recommendation to limit cell
phone use by children was strictly precautionary; it
was not based on scientific evidence that any health
hazard exists. A copy of the UK's leaflet is available
at http://www.dh.gov.uk (search "mobile"), or you
can write to: NRPB, Chilton, Didcot, Oxon OX11
ORQ, United Kingdom. Copies of the UK's annual
reports on mobile phones and RF are available
online at www.iegmp.org.uk and http://www.hpa.
org.uk/radiation/ (search "mobile"). Parents who
wish to reduce their children's RF exposure may
choose to restrict their children's wireless phone
use.
Where can I get further information about
RF emissions?
