not others. It is only by looking at all the studies together that we can form a picture of whether health concerns have some justification. It is no consolation to a parent that their child may not be affected, if there is a chance that their child will be affected. There is every prospect that the studies that fail to show a link may simply be studying the particular people who are not affected, or the people who are not affected YET. Many of the negative studies didn't include long-term users so the people studied might have gone on to develop cancers.  We will have a clearer picture as more studies are carried out but, in the meantime, children need to be protected from the possible dangers. Aren't we exposed to more radiation from the sun on an airplane journey than from any of this wireless technology? Microwave radiation from mobile phones and wireless products is potentially much more dangerous than sunlight, even with higher exposures nearer to the sun because our bodies have not evolved to cope with these unnatural exposures.

Radioactivity is a special form of radiation that is emitted when the nucleus of a radioactive atom disintegrates. It can include sub-atomic particles such as alpha and beta particles as well as gamma rays (a form of electromagnetic radiation ). It is called ionizing radiation because it has enough energy
