A relative (distant) has passed this morning. The cause was a brain tumor caused by....mobile phone useage. 47 years old. Doctors have said that there is recently (in the past few years) a spike in brain tumors attributed to cellular phone use. Particularily in men, but also a rise in women too. So this puts damage starting about 15 years ago, resulting in an early death. So, parents who have bought mobile phones for their kids (some as young as 11) are you going to continue to risk a life expectancy of 30 for your children?
Personally I hate the infernal things, and it would be a cold day in hell before I ever bought one for my kid.
Mobile phones?
I completely agree. I absolutely hate seeing young kids using mobile phones, because I've always been suspicious about what damage having a phone so close to the brain must be doing.
As much as I hate seeing kids with their own phones, I detest even more seeing people holding a mobile phone close to a baby or toddler to allow them to "talk" to someone - their little bodies are still developing.
Im sorry about the death of your relative - but maybe some good can come of tragic circumstances if only more people became more aware of the potential risks of using mobiles.
Reply:Mobile phones need to be only that. Not all the other flim flam
stuff.
I think that some have had the mobile surgically fixed to their ear.
Reply:i'm sorry to hear your news, and yes, maybe this is a warning to ALL the generations out there about mobile phone usage and the damaging effects in the long term! something to bear in mind for the parents...
Reply:My son's 9 year old daughter has a mobile. but she is only allowed to text from it and not speak into it. she knows too as my phone rang once and she gave it to me and told me she wasn't allowed to answer them.
i think that way is ok as a lot of parents nowadays give them to kids when they are out for safety reasons. and you can track a lost kid nowadays by their mobile phone.
Reply:There is no evidence of harm being caused, just a lot of speculation such as yours
Reply:There is no scientific evidence to support the accusation that mobile phones cause cancer. Studies have been done worldwide and they have been found to have been inconclusive. ie no result one way or the other.
