Turn up your speakers and listen to this sound. Do you hear anything?
This is a tone that adults can’t hear but teens and children can. Kaitie played it at the dinner table tonight. She and Dylan both could hear it and said it was very annoying. Bev and I were unable to hear it.
So do you hear anything when you click the link?
Edit: With the sound on my computer turned up pretty high, I can hear a noise. I don’t know if it sounds the same as a teen would hear.

A high pitched whine. A little anoying. You really could not hear it?
WHAT?! I couldn’t hear anything! Dang it, I’ve got to be in the adult side…
i could hear it, made my head ache lol
YES!!!! I’M STILL YOUNG!!! I HEARD IT!! glad to know I haven’t hit adult status yet hearing wise
Nope, even with the speakers cranked at full volume I could not hear a thing.
won’t load =(
is this the thing they were thinking about making cell phone rings with? so kids could get calls in class w/o their teachers hearing the rings?

My daughter’s friend does this so she can tell when her phone rings at school. My wife and I find this amusing, because just she still can’t answer it. I guess she feels empowered by the fact her teachers can’t hear it(?). :-p
I heard a slight split-second click or something. But other than that, not a thing.
