Is it dangerous to charge your phone next to you in bed? can electromagnetic radiation from the charger itself can be bad for you? can radiation from your phone be bad for you?
I'm not sure if you are kidding or not, but in the event not.
Chargers do not emit any harmful radiation or particulate that can harm you. You could sit next to one for 30 years non stop and have no real issues.

Anyone who says otherwise is making shit up.
You can charge and use your phone next to your bed, at the kitchen table, in the living room, and anywhere else you want. The charging current coming out of the wire (not the wall) isn't even enough to
be sensed, and can't harm you either. Radiation from phones isn't a thing as there are no elements inside your phone that can produce that radiation
and to my knowledge we can not produce ionizing radiation artificially without the use of any radioactive isotopes. Don't listen to me I have no clue what I am talking about. The rest is true.So you are fine, do not worry at all about your phone.
EDIT:
So from the rest of the people here I have learned EM radiation is not limited to radio frequencies, and that through the right wavelengths and energy, they can be harmful.
2.4 Ghz or anything else your phone receives or picks up will never cause you any harm whatsoever.
Like any electrical competent, power surges can cause issues, but this would be the same concern for having a lamp in your room. A deskside or ceiling mount lamp could explode too, but it probably won't happen.
Charging a Liion based device is 99% of the time safe. I have charged those batteries as well as NIMH and Sealed Lead Acid (UPS) next to me for YEARS with never a problem. I even have a pre-recall bad battery Nvidia Shield tab (To be replaced soon) and it has never exploded. Of course if you sense hissing, a burning smell, a lot of heat form your phone, or anything of the sort you might want to chuck it
out the window. This is not to scare you. Liion/Lipo failures are RARE and as long as you have a PROPER charger that is charging and PROPER device, there are no worries. So don't go charging you cheap Chinese phone using your cheap Chinese charger next to your bed.
The long held myth that phones emitting EM radiation was probably a pretty cool idea from parents to stop their kids from tapping away at their phones.
