wifi safety

[rhlheckle]

Hi I am terribly concerned about  wifi routers cell phones and electromagnetic safety.  Anybody using Earthcalm or anything similar?  I do not want my cells to be rearranged, my kids to grow tumors, or headaches and dizziness.  I am feeling the fog of electomagneticsmog in my home and want to protect myself from as much as possible.

easiest way to do it if you're worried is to take it all out of your home.  no one needs a computer or cell phone (though they are handy)

i looked up earthcalm and i have no idea what it does, but it seems like a great way to make money (everything on the site that i saw was expensive!)

I, too, am disgusted by the pervasiveness of WiFi.  Even if I got rid of my gadgets and doo-dads, the people next door still have their wifi up and running, infiltrating my home whether I want it or not.  It's everywhere  :(

Our wifi is in the opposite end of the home, farthest from where we sleep.  It's not a lot, but better than nothing.

I really don't think WiFi or anything is a big deal. But I've not done a lot of research, so who knows. I doubt anyone will really know for another 20-50+yrs. :shrug: As for earthcalm... after a bit of googling, I suspect is a load of BS - when the only sites that say anything positive about it are selling it... well... yeah. If it actually did anything there would be independent studies saying so, from reputable sources. And theres not. So I, personally, call BS.

And an expensive bit of BS!! Did you see how much the system costs? "Only" $298.00 for a home system. Yikes. I just can't see spending that kind of money on a completely unproven thing OR worrying about wifi. There is only so much time in the day for me to worry about stuff and wifi exposure is very far down the list.

Not trying to minimize your concern, but there are hazards EVERYWHERE! We're all going to die at some point, and I'm going to enjoy every bit of electronic time I can get... Man I love my new iPhone!! Kind of ironic that we're all on the computer doing Mothering forums

After my DH passed away, everything else seems trivial! Wish I wouldn't have spent so much time worrying about the small stuff- it's all irrelevant now.
