How old should you be to drink coffee?
Answers:
If you're old enough to drink soda containing caffeine you can drink mild coffee with milk and sugar.
When you are done growing because it stunts your growth. Make sure that all of your teeth are in because it will stain teeth, even if they have not grown in.
i drink coffee since i was 12
i have been dringing coffee secence i was 6 or 7 and im still tall.
old enough to handle its effects...
In small children I would do decaf, but i don't see why there should be an age limit? I have been drinking it for as long as I can remember and it did not stunt my growth or have any adverse affects.
doctors say around 8 or so...
Do they really need it? I personally think that there should be no age limit on drinking coffee, but encourage your child to stay away from it anyways, pointing out that there are better choices, such as a healthy breakfast.
None the less, i realize that some people don't have time for a healthy breakfast, and grabbing coffee is their solution. Respecting that, i still recommend giving your child other options, such as a small iced cappuccino (with 2% milk instead of cream!) as a special reward when they've done something special!
I have drank coffee since I was 6. I've always loved the taste of it, however now I'm addicted to it. Thanks, now I need another cup.
I didn't start drinking it till I was 28! However I don't think there should be an age limit. If you give your kid soda then coffee shouldn't be any worse. My son is very hyper and coffee has the opposite effect on him. It actually calms him down! He is 10. I wouldn't give it to him otherwise. Alot of my friends drank it in high school, so I guess I would say around then.
Doesn't matter..I use to drink it at age 4.now im older and I think it's digusting!!
it doesnt really matter what age you are, i personally hate cofee, i think it tastes discusting!
well, my first cup was when i was about 3? my dad told me i drank his coffee while he was busy talking :)
i think that's a little early, though, because when we're kids we're so energetic we don't need coffee... so about 12 yrs old is fine, though not to the extent of 1 cup a day.
i started at 9 years old !!!!!
i am 12 and i love coffee!! :) it keeps me energized~!
