EDIT: whoa! I have been downvotted after asking if it is safe for children.
So, here are some references.
"Children have much thinner skull bones and their brains have a lot more fluid, so their brain tissues would likely absorb twice more radiation compared to an adult’s brain. But cellphone radiation standards set by the government remains the same for both groups." http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/tag/radiation/
"If the notebook is sitting on a child’s lap, that child is exposed to radio emissions comparable to that of a mobile phone. If the notebook is 20 cm away, the child is subjected to exposure of just 1% to that of a mobile phone" http://tech.blorge.com/Structure:%20/2007/04/29/warning-keep...
How about that?
