Q. What are some common sources of noise pollution caused by children?
A. Based on the data collected from Twitter using hashtags #騒音被害 and #子供, and analyzing 18 different individuals' posts between May 20, 2023, and March 3, 2017, several common sources of noise pollution caused by children were identified. The data highlights the following sources:
1. Children's Footsteps: Out of the 18 analyzed posts, 13 of them were complaints specifically related to children's footsteps. This suggests that children running or stomping around can contribute to noise pollution, particularly in shared living spaces or apartments. 
    2. Children's Voices: Nine posts were focused on children's voices, indicating that loud or excessive talking, shouting, or screaming by children can also contribute to noise pollution. This may be particularly disruptive in residential areas or places where noise restrictions apply. 
    3. Household Noises: Two posts mentioned noise pollution caused by household activities related to children. This could include sounds such as banging doors, slamming cabinets, or other noises associated with regular child-related activities within a household setting. 
    4. Amusement Facilities: One post highlighted the impact of noise pollution caused by amusement facilities, presumably referring to noisy play areas, entertainment venues, or amusement parks where children gather and engage in activities that generate excessive noise.
    Overall, based on the analyzed Twitter data, common sources of noise pollution caused by children include their footsteps, voices, household activities, and the noise generated in amusement facilities. It is important to note that the sample size of 18 posts from Twitter may not represent the full range of sources, but these trends provide some insights into commonly reported noise-related issues caused by children.

Q. How does noise affect people's health? (Noise especially from schools)

Q. How does noise affect people's health? How can excessive noise from children impact the mental and physical health of individuals in the community? Are there any specific health risks associated with prolonged exposure to noise caused by children? A. Noise can have a significant impact on people's health, especially when it comes to excessive noise from children within a community.       Decibels, the unit used to measure noise levels, play a crucial role in understanding these effects. For instance, a normal conversation typically ranges from 60 to 70 decibels, but sustained exposure to noise levels of 80-90 decibels can lead to hearing loss.       Research specifically focused on children's noise in schools reveals interesting findings. The Japanese Ministry of Education suggests that classroom noise levels should be below 50 decibels with windows closed and below 55 decibels with windows open. Although a difference of 5 decibels may seem insignificant, it's import

Q. How many people complain about the noise children make?

  Q1. How many people complain about the noise children make?   A1. 　I would like to summarize the results of a survey conducted by a nursery school to find out how many people actually consider children to be noisy. The survey was open from November 5 to November 30, 2014; and 720 people responded to it. 　According to the result of a survey, about 43% of all (315 people) answered that they have felt that children's noises are noise. Although the numbers are not extremely high, it is clear that a certain number of people still feel that children's voices are noisy. In addition, the survey was conducted online, and some people found and responded to the survey as a result of a search, which may be more biased than actual public opinion. 　The fact that such a survey was conducted shows that there is at least a high level of interest in this issue in Japan. _________________________   Q2.

Q. Have they ever had a trial regarding children's noise in Japan?

  Q1 . Have they ever had a trial regarding children's noise in Japan? What was the judgement of a trial?   Q2. If they have had,what was the judgement of the trial? 　A.The answer to the first question is yes. And then, I would like to introduce you some examples of actual court cases in Japan involving sounds made by children and educational facilities.  【Case1】 Tokyo District Court, October 3, 2007   The defendant's eldest son (3~4 years old at the time) was complained of the noise produced when he ran, jumped and bounced in the hallway. The performance of the structure of the second floor of this building in terms of heavy impact sound insulation was about LH-60. According to the sound insulation performance standard for buildings of the Architectural Institute of Japan, this is a slightly inferior level in terms of sound insulation performance for apartment buildings. However, this condominium was intended for a family of three bedrooms, and children were also expected to l
