According to ScienceDaily, your teen tapping away at their cellphones all day doesn’t increase their risk of brain cancer.
Cellphone usage has increased a great deal, in both teens and adults, but the risk of getting brain cancer hasn’t changed over the last 20 years.
This is good news for those who have a cellphone addict on their hands.
The researchers of this particular study may not have found a link but it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be cautious with the amount of time your teen spends on their cellphone. "Because we did not find a clear exposure-response relationship in most of these analyses, the available evidence does not support a causal association between the use of mobile phones and brain tumors."
