Just read an article about radiation from laptops being harmful to children. Something to keep in mind for when Jonah is older and wants to start using a computer. Parenting a child in the computer age will be an adventure. Uncharted waters for me, that's for sure.
Another article I came across today talked about a report based on a study of the health of children living near powerlines. The study showed "clear evidence that living near an electricity line could be linked to fatal childhood diseases such as leukaemia." Additionally, the report also "raised concerns about the electric and magnetic fields inside the home caused by radios, televisions and even washing machines and cookers. It called for the Government to advise householders on reducing risks, for example by moving electrical equipment away from the bedside."
The authors, a collective of academics, medical charities and representatives of the electricity industry, urged equipment manufacturers to "investigate how to limit electric and magnetic fields."
