Re: Re: trying to find a safer school

[Guest guest]

Hi Amy,

thanks for the suggestion, i was considering home schooling a couple

years ago and my son didn't want that, and now he wants it even less, he

wants to go to high school, just he wants to go to a high school he's

excited about, not the local one down the street....all of them have

building safety issues, as do most buildings, I just have to try and

guess which " poison " is the worst for him....

that said, i'll google homeschooling in our area and see what i come up

with for teens...

HI ,

Thanks for your suggestion, in the end there is not time to do this,

school starts in a couple weeks, the public schools are so busy they

don't even have time to give you a full tour right now, i will probably

just let him go where he wants to go and hope for the best, dangers are

lurking out there in every corner but I have to let the kid live his

life. His psyche is already permanently damaged by my fears and

knowledge of everything in modern life and he begs me to stop telling

him about anything new I learn about our horrible food supply, water

supply, chemicals in our daily lives, emfs, etc etc, he wants to be

ignorantly blissful like everyone else out there, it's hard for me to

turn it off as i have learned so much in my quest to try and heal my

other kid...

btw, he is not sick, doesn't have allergies, etc. my other kid is flat

on his back though, we all were exposed and for the kids entire lives to

hidden mold in our house and all have high levels of mycotoxins per

realtime labs.

I want to tell you that I disagree with you about the emfs, the science

is very biased in this area, like in most, towards commercial

interests. If you look at cell phone safety studies funded by

industry, there is no risk (and this parallels what happens in the

pharma industry--drug trials funded by big pharma by and large come out

with results favorable to big pharma), if you look at cell phone safety

studies that are independently funded, the results are much more

alarming. In some countries cell phones are not allowed to be used by

kids....and more....in some places in europe they are yanking wifi from

public libraries, there is at least one md who built a medical clinic

that is shielded from emfs because he believes they interfere w/healing....

I was in Dallas at Dr. Rea's clinic this spring and his annual

environmental health symposium was on the health impacts of emfs

including cell phones, wifi, dirty electricity....the doctors and

scientists at this symposium believe that the massive and ever

increasing emf exposures will result in an epidemic exponentially

greater than anything previously seen with other environmental toxins

(chemicals, etc.).... Everyday I met patients at Dr. Rea's clinic who

are emf sensitive, first they get a mold or chemical exposure, and when

their immune system weakens enuf, then they become emf sensitive.

Read the following: Wireless Radiation Rescue by Kerry Crofton PhD,

Dirty Electricity by Sam Milham, there is also a new book by Devra

on cell phones, she is an epidemiologist who wrote a book called The

SEcret History of the War on Cancer, very enlightening, and about how

chemicals and toxic exposures are behind most cancers, this is now

becoming a more acceptable viewpoint with the presidents scientific

panel recently saying the same thing. Also, there is a group

called emfrefugee, check it out, people are getting sick from these

invisible rays, we mostly can't avoid them, but we don't need to go out

of our way to be in the center of a wifi field all day long...that's

what the school is.... also, if not yet available, the symposium

booklet/tapes will be available for purchase from teh american

environmental health foundation.

btw, my older son with the serious chronic health issues " fell apart "

the year that he was going to school in a wireless school building and

this was before every neighbor had wifi but was also during the time

when more and more cell towers and masts were going up so the density of

that form of electrosmog was increasing....

Is this the cause of all his health problems, surely not, but likely

another factor that weakended his system and threw it farther out of whack.

Thanks, Suea
