Best Answer

It has been scientifically proven that loud music over prolonged periods can damage the eardrums of developing children. It is important that you get your child earphones with safety features that will prevent this from occuring. Also, if the earphones do not fit properly, they can hurt the outside of the ear, although this is not as serious as permanent hearing loss.
