I'm not sure it's harmful, but I definitely think they should NOT be allowed to have that! It's just too much for a kid to be drinking coffee!. Caffeine isn't good for anyone generally speaking - it's very dehydrating and addictive!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Not particularly, the best times to drink Coffee are between meals so:

11:00am
6:00pm
7:30am!.
NEVER
1:00pm (or just after lunch)
8:00pm ( or just after dinner)
9:00am (or just after breakfast)

as always, a sensible amount will be fine!. However, aside from being a stimulant, caffeine is also a bladder irritant so you will have a hyper child who pees all the time! :-)Www@FoodAQ@Com

Regulated servings I do not see a problem but either way giving kids coffee is like using a gallon gasoline to light a campfire!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I don't think it is harmful but it will make them go hypo!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
