Children face constant exposure to wireless radiation from devices like smartphones and tablets. Research links this radiation to health risks like cancer.
While kids do need to be able to use electronics, it’s a good idea to do everything you can to limit their exposure to EMFs. After all, their brains are more susceptible to damage than adult brains!
To reduce exposure at home, increase the distance between kids and wireless devices by using wired headphones or speaker mode and carrying devices in bags rather than pockets.
Put devices in airplane mode when not in use and place routers and cordless phone bases away from bedrooms and play areas.
Choose wired devices like headphones and keyboards when possible and do not allow devices in bedrooms.
Download movies instead of streaming and watch them on wired devices in airplane mode. Have kids use devices on hard surfaces, not laps and turn game consoles off after playing. Turn devices off when not in use, especially at night and in transit.
At school, delay cell phone use as long as possible and emphasize using speakerphone or wired earbuds for calls.
Request policies at your child’s school limiting student device use and use wired network connections when possible. Ask them to keep school WiFi routers at the lowest usable level and powered off when not in use.
For virtual learning, remind students to power down devices when not using them and advocate for more wired technology in schools.In addition to these tips, consider protecting your family with EMF Defense devices that neutralize the positive ions in EMF radiation.
These devices vary from wearable protection to whole-home EMF kits that are easily installed on devices like wireless routers and smart meters. You can find a variety of these devices HERE.
