Cell Phones - Do They Cause Cancer
Children and cell phones
Generally, cell phone studies have involved adults aged 18 or older. Most children didn't use cell phones until the mid-1990s. This leaves the effects of cell phone use on children questionable, but taking the same steps outlined for adults with your children may help to reduce the potential risks.
Other national governments have recommended that children be discouraged from using cell phones. In December 2000, the British government handed out pamphlets that recommended minimizing children's cell phone usage, even though there was no scientific evidence confirming or denying a health risk.
