When can children start taking tea , coffee and cappuccino ?!


Question: I didn't start drinking coffee till I was about 16, I just didn't like it.

On the other hand, my mom was drinking coffee by the time she was 6 years old. Her family always had coffee with EVERYTHING.

Tea is a drink that is very good for someone's health. I don't think there is any problem if a kid is drinking that when he or she is young, just as long as he likes the taste.

tea is always a good thing for kids, usually they should be around 3 and up. coffee kids shouldnt really drink till 10.

i drank tea from about 2 or three years old and i dont think it harmed me!! my two kids never drink tea and coffee and i wouldnt mind if they did because we only drink decaff!!as long as youre not adding sugar a cup now and then wont hurt in my opinion

I started at about 11-12 years old

My 5 year old neice has tea parties, but with only a tiny cup of mostly milk and sugar tea

i've been drinking coffee since i was like 4 and im fine. i weigh as much as i should for my build and genetics and am an average height. im a blood donor so i get my blood pressure checked often and they keep tellin me its amazingly good and that i am in really good health. therefore, i dont see anything wrong with it. the way i look at it is like this... do you let your kid eat fast food or drink pop? if so you're slowly killing them and ruining their health.... so why ask about something healthy like tea or coffee?
