I had coffee in a shopping centre earlier & a young man was going up/down on an e-bike inside, narrowly missing shoppers/pushchairs etc. He was laughing & filming himself, presumably for social media clicks. A very elderly lady stood in front of him & shouted ‘NO, get off your bike’. He just laughed & carried on cycling. Security guard just stood there, doing nothing. I wanted to push him off his bike when he next passed. Security guard told me not to, because “you will be done for assault, or worse if he injured himself”. And so, we all sat & watched him continuously ride up & down laughing, while people jumped out of his way… Reader - It was infuriating🤬

Nora Keegan was not trying to change public health policy. She was just paying attention. In elementary school in Calgary, she noticed something adults kept dismissing. Children rushing out of public restrooms. Hands clamped over their ears. Faces tense. Complaints whispered between friends. It hurts my ears. She felt it too. After using hand dryers, her ears rang. The sound lingered. Adults brushed it off. They are just loud. That is what machines do. But Nora kept wondering why children reacted so strongly. And more importantly, why no one was measuring it. In fifth grade, she decided to find out. With the help of her parents, both physicians, she turned curiosity into research. She borrowed professional sound equipment. She designed an experiment. And then she went where the problem lived. Public bathrooms. Over two years, she visited forty four restrooms across Alberta. Libraries. Restaurants. Schools. She took eight hundred and eighty measurements. She measured at adult height. Then she crouched to measure at child height. She tested distance. Position. Airflow. Again and again. What she found was impossible to ignore. Many high speed hand dryers exceeded one hundred decibels at a child’s ear level. Some reached levels comparable to emergency sirens. Levels that medical authorities already prohibit in children’s toys because of the risk of hearing damage. Children were not imagining the pain. They were standing closer to the source. Their ears were smaller. And the sound hitting them was stronger than what adults experienced. Manufacturers claimed their machines were safe. Nora’s data showed real world conditions told a different story. And she did not stop there. Still in middle school, she began designing a noise reduction filter. A simple modification that lowered sound output by more than ten decibels. Proof that the problem was not inevitable. Then she did something most adults never do. She wrote a scientific paper. Her first submission was rejected. So she revised. She corrected. She tried again. In June 2019, Paediatrics and Child Health published her study. Its title was direct and impossible to dismiss. Children who say hand dryers hurt my ears are correct. She was thirteen years old. Health professionals paid attention. Researchers cited her work. Parents shared it. Manufacturers requested meetings. All because a child trusted her own experience enough to test it. Nora did not raise her voice. She measured. She documented. She proved. And in doing so, she reminded the world of something simple and easily forgotten. Sometimes the smallest voices are describing the biggest problems. You just have to listen.

You get one point for each of these if your mum said any of them to you when you were a kid.
