My mom got mad because i drank a Monster energy drink?!

i havent drank any soda in well over a year [i dont like soda] its not like im constantly drinking caffeine like her & my father & brother are. the only thing i've drank in over a year is kool aid, fruit juices, hawaiian punch, some tea, stuff like that. so why did she flip out & say that much caffeine is bad for me when i hardly ever drink it?? and i drank it in 2 different sittings. lik half when i got it and the other half at dinner. and then she came home & got mad abou it.

btw; im 14.

heh,
moms are moms there always annoying you know.. well mines not ok a little.

She was probably still worried about the caffeine and high amount of sugar in it. btw monster is digusting.

It is loaded with caffeine -- you can feel your heart race after drinking it. You should drink more plain water.

Monster if bad for you because of the high amount of caffeine and sugar. Your mom is probably worried about you drinking it but just tell her it's only once.

She has ever right to. That stuff can be dangerous for someone your age. And besides, stimulants are drugs.

This is because high amounts of caffeine (as well as other stimulants) are not at all good for anyone and are especially bad when you are younger and still developing.

She is just trying to be a good mom and trying to protect you from the negative effects of such stimulants.

some moms think enerjy drinks are bad... because of all the
caffiene and the sugar ect. ask her why she doesnt like them, then try to reason with her, but remember she is your mother... you live under her house you go by her rules
yeah, thats pretty much it...

It's just different from plain coffee or other sodas because it has a higher concentration of caffeine so there's more caffeine per serving. It also has guarana and other ingredients that your mom might be worried about.

I prefer plain old water. But it's up to you.

Your mum is only looking out for you.

lol my mom got mad too, she said "you have school tommorow so your gonna drink that?" i said yeah she got mad cuz i didnt sleep til like 3 in the morning. so yeah, it did have an effect on me, but i went out and bought 2 cases to upset her =P i love my mom xD
