The scientific evidence does not show a danger to any users 
of cell phones from RF exposure, including children and 
teenagers. The steps adults can take to reduce RF exposure 
apply to children and teenagers as well. 

• 

Reduce the amount of time spent on the cell phone; 

• 

Use speaker mode or a headset to place more distance between 

the head and the cell phone. 

Some groups sponsored by other national governments have 
advised that children be discouraged from using cell phones 
at all. For example, The Stewart Report from the United 
Kingdom made such a recommendation in December 2000. 
In this report, a group of independent experts noted that no 
evidence exists that using a cell phone causes brain tumors 
or other ill effects. Their recommendation to limit cell phone 
use by children was strictly precautionary; it was not based 
on scientific evidence that any health hazard exists.
