Echo dot/radiation exposure for kids

[Stormy900]

AIBU to be worried about this?
10 year old and 12 year d DC would both love one for Christmas, for their bedrooms.
They want it for music, asking questions, audible stories, etc.
If they were radiation free I'd get them without hesitation.
But I'm honestly genuinely worried about increasing their exposure to radiation when using these on top of already being exposed to high levels from our Internet WiFi.
I read online that an echo dot should be used several meters away from the child at all times to minimise risks from radiation exposure, but the distance given on the echo dot small print safety info is bigger than the size of our house, let along the size of their rooms!
Yet everyone I know seems to have one and noone seems to care about the radiation.
So AIBU???
Any experts on this out there?

How many WiFi enabled devices are currently in your house?

im assuming you have a phone?

That's right, I have a phone.
Read: concerns about increasing their exposure

Do not, under any circumstances, allow your children to go outside. Particularly in the daytime. The nearest star is blasting radiation from right across the electromagnetic spectrum. Even at night, it is being reflected off the moon.
Have you considered a Faraday cage for them? Like those runs made of chicken wire that people exercise pet rabbits in. That would help a bit, I guess.

Hot tip, OP. The "EMF Academy" site is a shady business flogging anti-radiation shit to crackpots and drawing on their ignorance to make radio waves sound like nuclear radiation.

3 mobile phones
1 laptop
1 tablet

And smart TV if that counts?

Best invest in some more foil then.

Ah, interesting.....I did not know this!

I’d be far more worried about the privacy issues with having an Alexa in a bedroom - but not worried about radiation in the slightest!

Mine have had Alexas in their rooms since birth. Wouldn’t occur to me to worry about anything other than volume levels!

OMG this is hilarious.

OP , please do yourself a favour and find actual things that need worrying about the spend your time worrying about!!

Bubble wrap the kids

I'm the reverse.
I don't actually care about privacy issues.
We're a very boring family!😂I can't see anyone or anything wanting to spy on us!

It's an echo dot not a neutron bomb.

Hi OP, have a google of the electromagnetic spectrum. BBC bitesize will explain it well. Please don't worry about your household devices damaging you or your kids!

As long as you put salt around the speaker and walk around the building widdershins once a day they should be fine.

@Stormy900 s

And you trust the EMF Academy because...

EMF?

Unbelievable.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

This.

But if your kids start to glow in the dark, put their tin foil hats on them immediately!

My dd just googled them and the 1st thing it came up with was credibility and SCAM, you are sucked in.

I think your swallowed the cool aid op.

It’s just wifi calm down or get rid of it all and buy that wifi repelling paint. Its white.

Lots of snidey comments here directed at a worried parent. Lovely.
