When I was young, my mother would never allow me or my sister to drink coffee or tea (i guess because of the caffiene). I was so not interested in it that I never drank tea or coffee until I was 15 or so. To my dismay, in my office one guy was picking out the best flavour for his 6 to 12 year old children. So, At what age did u guys start drinking coffee, tea etc? Do you let your kids drink them? Thomas My article on a reference-counted smart pointer that supports polymorphic objects and raw pointers
I drank tea from an early age, probably 10 or so. I drink about 15 cups of tea a day now. On the way into work this morning the radio news announced some French researchers have discovered that tea (regular, not herbal or green or rooibos) drinkers have stronger immune systems and may even be less likely to get cancer. And regular tea is healthy enough, in moderation of course, just like anything. It is not going to screw up your kids.

We were never allowed coffee as kids, and I never understood why. I still don't. There's more caffeine in soft drinks, especially colas, and the acid content is lower than most kids' drinks. If anything, kids should be encouraged to drink coffee rather than Coke. One thing that was banned in my house as a kid that the neighbors all got to have was Kool-Aide. My dad served on an aircraft carrier in WWII, and still remembers using powdered Kool-Aide to remove the rust on the flight deck. He said that as long as he's paying for the dentist visits, we weren't having Kool-Aide.:) "Please don't put cigarette butts in the urinal.

Sensible people don't let their kids have either. Too much caffeine isn't good for the growing body. My son is 6 and occasionaly gets to have a small Coke with his Happy Meal. Lemonade (Sprite to you heathens), juice, water are the staples. Instant coffee and tea bags also don't have the caffeine level of fresh brewed coffee and tea leaves. Both my kids occasionaly have tea but I think coffee will be left until at least high school.

I hate coffee and only like Lipton tea. I think that you should let kids drink coffee whenever they can ask for it. That horrible taste should drive them away. X| ...Zack...

Well, as a kid, I can say that I never really got into caffeine until this year (14 years old). Nowadays its Jolt soda (citrus flavored, preferably) or just straight caffeine pills (:cool:). I can't stand the taste of Coke, and didn't like coffee when I tried it a while back... eh, caffeine pills take care of it all.

I started drinking tea around 10 or so also. My parents wouldn't let me have coffee but tea was ok. I never did figure that out. Have been drinking tea from then on. Here's a link stating something similar to what you heard Paul. http://health.discovery.com/news/afp/20030421/tea.html[^] An interesting quote from the article: "The health benefits of tea have been touted for centuries but no human research has demonstrated an association between tea drinking and immunology," said lead author Jack Bukowski. Cheers and keep drinking that tea! Mike
