Cell phone use and behavioral problems in young children

The highest rate for behavioral problems were for children who had both prenatal and postnatal exposure to cell phones; the children were found 50% more likely to have problems.  "Potential health effects of cell phone use in children have not been adequately examined. As children are using cell phones at earlier ages, research among this group has been identified as the highest priority by both national and international organizations."  The study "looked at prenatal and postnatal exposure to cell phone use and behavioral problems at age 7 years. Exposure to cell phones prenatally, and to a lesser degree postnatally, was associated with more behavioral difficulties. The original analysis included nearly 13,000 children who reached age 7 years by November 2006."
