There is more Caffeine in Mountain Dew than a cup of Coffee.
and c'mon, do kids really need a stimulant? Teenagers maybe, but kids?

I had my first cup at 4 years old with my Grandmother, every time I drink a cup of coffee, I always think of me and my 'Nana' (What I called her) Spending time together, Coloring, talking about weird things, etc. Gosh I wish she was still here today. <3

It’s cultural. In Latino households children drink a little coffee with lots of milk at a very young age. I remember drinking coffee in my after school snack or Saturday mornings.

Caffeine is the cause of anxiety in children and adults. Save your children and yourself. Read caffeine blues.

I was born in 1945 and by the time I was probably 5, or 6 I wanted to be like my Dad. In the morning at breakfast I wanted a cup of coffee like my Dad so my Mom would get a coffee mug, fill it with milk almost to the top and put enough coffee in it to color it so I thought I was drinking coffee like Pop ! I was so happy, because it made me feel like a BIG BOY ! I'm now 77 and it doesn't seem to have harmed me at all ! LOL . Thanks Mom & Dad ! 💙☕️

I used to sneakily take sips from my aunts cups of coffee when I was young and they weren’t looking because they always told me not to drink coffee or I wouldn’t grow or I will shrink 😂 I’m at Starbucks almost everyday now.

I was 12 when I was allowed to have coffee at the breakfast table. I had been grabbing a cup whenever I could for about a year already… My mom offered me a cup. Unfortunately we were also a family of smokers too at the table, and it wasn’t long until I fell in to cigarettes too. I was about 15 when I officially had my morning coffee with a Marlboro in front of my folks. It was more awkward than the coffee first time.

Coffee promotes teenagers's memory and visual attention during classes. It has a lot of benefits for the body of all ages. Of course, we must drink coffee in healthy amounts, especially teenagers. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics suggests that teenagers ages to 12 to 18 should cap daily caffeine intake at 100 mg (1 cup).

It's absolutely OK to give a coffee to any person at any age… Except for infants in my opinion
