A group of Ontario parents believe that the wireless internet at their children's elementary schools are making the kids sick and are demanding that the wifi be turned off. The childrens' symptoms supposedly range from headaches to dizziness and nausea and even racing heart rates. Said one person on the Safe School Committee: "These kids are getting sick at school but not at home."

Is there something to these parent's claims, or could this be a case of mass hyseteria?

It could be high EMF, could be mold, cleaning agents, materials used in the carpet, furniture, or even perfumes.  Do they have a pet in the classroom?  Could be a multitude of things.
