You should be concerned about your child's exposure to Wi-Fi, both at home and in schools. School Wi-Fi systems are industrial strength compared to what we have in our homes. Routers mounted in hallways and other locations can blast a signal through as much as 18 inches of cinderblock.

Home routers are constantly pulsing to keep the signal, exposing children to Wi-Fi radiation 24 hours a day—even when they are sleeping.

This is anecdotal evidence so far, but more research is underway.
