Mobile Phones for Kids. Necessary or Negligent?


There is an alarming increase in children aged 5 - 9 owning a mobile phone. some research has now shown that fertility, pregnancy and child development problems associated with modern wireless technology such as mobile phones, phone masts, wifi, microwave baby alarms etc are on the increase.

Health effects may include a reduction in sperm quality and therefore male fertility, memory and sleep problems, and a recent study has found behavioural changes in children who had been exposed prenatally to radio frequencies.

Eileen O'Connor is the Director for the The Radiation Research Trust (RRT). The RRT are leading supporters of the precautionary approach to Electromagnetic Radiation (EMR) and as such advocate release of substantial research funds from Government and Industry while offering immediate protection and advice to the public.

The RRT gained charitable status in 2003 and is supported by MPs and MEPs from each of the UK political parties. They are also indebted to Independent Scientific, Public Health and Technical Advisors. Visit the Radiation Research Trust website www.radiationresearch.org

In a statement from Professor Yury Grigoriev, Chairman of Russian National Committee on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection:

"The potential risk to children's health is very high and a completely new problem. Use of mobile phones for those under 18 or pregnant should be restricted. Children have a unique vulnerability as they grow and develop; there are ‛windows of susceptibility' periods when their organs and systems may be particularly sensitive to the effect of certain environmental threats. The existing standards cannot guarantee the safe, healthy development of the next generation."

To find out about the potential dangers associated with modern technology go to www.rewire.me - a highly interactive full screen PDF with links to video, virtual reality, audio and scientific studies about the dangers of the electromagnetic fields that are produced by our modern technology.

The information is presented in a way that is easy to read and understand with colourful graphics and "Rich Media" as support materials. The Radiation Research Trust are the distributors and sponsors of the publication and we hope to use this medium to reach the governments and their citizens from all over the world that are still unaware of the illnesses that are caused by wireless technologies.
