Cut That Music Down Or You Will End Up Deaf!

It's the relentless nag of parents, but things are getting tougher for parents who want to safeguard their kids' ears

.

Kids are listening to small music devices that are not as easily noticed and controlled by watchful parents.

And it's not only about controlling noise.

It's also about protecting your child's hearing.

Parents can take an active roll in preventing hearing loss in kids

One of the common causes of hearing loss is earsplitting noise.

Sounds higher than eighty decibels can cause serious hearing loss in most people.

But a lot of people play their stereos and televisions higher than this right in their very own homes. Your den, with its audio/video equipment may be a danger to your hearing and that of your kids. Also, hardwood floors that are so fashionable also tend to amplify the noise and bounce it around the room.

It's not unusual to see kids listening to music and other entertainment with a headset. And many young people actually have damaged their hearing before they are legally adults.

It's heartbreaking that so many younger people have already damaged their hearing so young.

All parents need to be aware of this danger and make sure that kids are listening to music and other entertainment at safe volumes

Just about any stereo or music output device can play music loud enough to injure hearing.

A concert or music event or even a movie may be loud enough to damage hearing. If you have ever been to an event and come out with your ears ringing, you may very well have some amount of hearing loss.

Remember having this feeling coming out of high school dances? It can happen everywhere.

Many types of entertainment can cause this type of hearing loss, Sports car races, concerts, sporting events, airports, fireworks displays and lots of other things people do every day can be dangerous to your hearing in addition to your child's hearing.

Parents can take an active roll in monitoring events and activities and letting event managers know they expect things to be safe for teenager ears.

In addition, parents can have young people use ear protection and wear it themselves. Once ears are damaged there is no going back. Prevention is the best alternative for young people and parents.
