No one should drink them
My kid’s 14 & 11 very rarely have soft drink there is no way I would let them have energy drinks.
Nope. My boy is 14 and he’s not allowed to drink them! I let him have a lotus though at the coffee shop cause it’s suppose to be a healthier energy drink
Absolutely not! They’re terrible for anyone, let alone a kid! Why does a 12 year old need an energy drink!?

Not for a 12 year old, my 16 year old has drank one ever now and then of the zero sugar ones but that’s like once in a blue moon.
My son wanted to drink energy drinks he was 11.we asked our pediatrician and he said Absolutely not.It is not good for their heart ect.No i would not allow a child that young to drink them.
Nope…I don’t drink em either
I dont let mine. I look at it like, when they older they will be doing it anyways(like we all did) so no they dont need to while they are young. I dont let them drink coke either, they’ll probly drink that shit like crazy when they older too.
Uh, they literally cause heart problems. So no. Plus I need it to keep up with them, if they have them too I’m toast:weary:
Nooooooo a big huge resounding NOOOOO
No it is not good for them. Adults shouldn’t either.
Nope. But as a teacher, I see kids with these often.
That’s a NO for my kids
Nope bad for our hearts
Hell to the no for me. Its a no for me all around though. My hubby drinks em and I hate it.
No, they aren’t good for adults either!
Nope! My 13 year old begs and begs too but nope I won’t budge on it
Nope! Sadly they will find a way to get it
Absolutely NOT!! Look at the caffeine amount in them. I just found out the one I’ve been drinking has 300mgs of caffeine in a 16 oz can.

I personally do not allow my children even my teenagers drink them. I also don’t buy soda or kool-aid either. Not good for them at all.

I don’t allow it with my 13 year old but unfortunately there’s no age restriction so if he goes to a store he likes to buy them with his own money… I usually dump them when I see them and that causes conflict between us… I do allow some coffee, he’s ADHD so it calms him down…

My husband had a stroke at 26 from consuming multiple Monsters a day. Absolutely not.
Not healthy to much caffeine
My adhd 13 year old daughter had a teacher in the third grade that said “instead of the medicine, try caffeinated drinks before school. That seems to work for some kids.” So I did! It has worked but my daughter wants these all the time now. I will be taking them away
They can cause a lot of damage, I don’t allow my kids.
I allow my children to have one or two drinks of mine every know and then. But more than that is a no for me.

No. Way too young for so much caffeine. My kids will rarely have anything caffeinated at their ages of 9 and 11. Maybe in a few years the older one will, but 12 is still too young.
So tbh I started drinking energy drinks in like 7th grade and I always had a friend who would bring me one my parents never said no to them but never said yes either no one drank them in my house it was always coffee which I also drank because I’m a night owl and always have been and would always be tired in the morning but I got to the point where I had a very unhealthy addiction to energy drinks because my parents allowed within reason due to family issues moved in with my grandparents and they were very strict about no energy drinks and that’s where it became unhealthy for me and I could and would put down about 3 monsters a day then I started on red bulls and then one of the worst was redlines you were only supposed to drink half the bottle which was an 8oz bottle I would drink a bottle and a half how I’m alive I have no idea but personally I would say start with coffee maybe especially if this is because the 12 year old is tired I also saw someone say v8 energy drinks which are great and give like one a day before school it would perk them up but it would also kind of pull them away from the heavy energy drinks also pay attention to group of friends one friend is probably the caffeine junkie who said something about it all I have to say is don’t be too strict and don’t be an absolutely not parent teach them the dangers of most of the energy drinks if you give a little and show understanding instead of shutting down the topic it will keep your kid from being sneaky and drinking them dangerously
No! When I was 12 I drank one and landed in the hospital… don’t do it!
Nope I wouldn’t let my kid drink energy drinks… even myself I don’t drink it… it could cause a lot of damage to the heart…
A friend of mine her adopted son is 22 years old and just last week he had a heart attack and was 100 blockage due to his energy drink addiction he now has a stint in place and on a strict diet so no energy drink for kids or anyone else jmo

Wtf? No. No one should drink energy drinks.
Your child, your choice and I won’t judge people for it but I will not have my daughter drinking them until she can buy them with her own money after she is out of my house.
I don’t allow my kids to drink energy drinks.
No it’s not good for them
Um no!!! I dont even drink them. So bad for us
No way. I dont even like drinking them. I’ll have one if im sleepy and need to do some driving and have to stay awake but not on a daily basis. Like 1 or 2 a month
Not even suppose to sell a child an energy drink. There was once an age limit of 16
They are their own persons
I don’t allow my older teens to drink them (they do get some once in a while but that’s out of my control) my 12 year old is barely allowed to have any caffeine at all let alone.an energy drink. Too much caffeine can send them into cardiac arrest
I did when I was that age….but I would NOT let my children do it. I was a rebel (my parents didn’t allow me to have them) and would buy them with my lunch money when I walked to school. Definitely not good for kids.

I wouldn’t… personally speaking from experience of having an energy drink addiction, they made me very unwell to the point i collasped thinking i was having a stroke or a heart attack at 27. they give me heart palpations now. I wish i never started drinking them, they’re so dsngerous.
To young in my opinion.
Every once in a while it’s ok
My 12 year old is a very active girl who is in sports and she drinks water and Gatorade 
They arent good for anyone, especially a child

No they dont need it and if they drink too many it can be dangerous
Definitely not! I dont think anyone should drink those. I don’t drink them and will not allow my kids to start. An old friend use to drink them like crazy and something happened to his heart and something else I can’t rmbr.
As someone who did at that age and still does, I don’t recommend it but also I have insomnia and it helped keep me up in school or coffee cause my parents didn’t agree with medication
When I was in 5th grade there was an epidemic of kids ages 9-11 having heart attacks from drinking energy drinks.

Its not just the caffeine it’s also all the other stimulants that combine with the caffeine in energy drinks. There is a documentary we show our year 9 students in health and it shows with high consumption of energy drinks while it’s in your system you present characteristics of hypertension… Flat out No
12 year olds already have energy! I swear some of these questions are made up. Just trolling its own subscribers!

In the uk it is illegal to sell these to anyone under 16 years old due to health risks. People are arguing 18 should be minium age.
Look up how many children have had heart attacks from these drinks and use your brain to decide. Which should be flat out no

I would hope at aged 12 a child should have lot’s of energy anyway, I know my 12 yr old does, but no I dont think they should have energy drinks.
Nope absolutely not !
Once in a while won’t hurt…and depending on the kid depends on the effects…my son has ADHD so caffeine and energy products calm him down more than rile him up
My 12yr old recently asked me if she could try some & start drinking them because most her friends drink them. I explained how bad they are & that I don’t believe 12yr olds should be drinking energy drinks. She understood & said she never realised how bad they are that she’d be taking them off her friends

Why do 12 year old not have enough energy? I know why I don’t. I remember being 12 and having way more energy then I could burn. Lol
No .too young,full of shite,sugar and they will get hooked.
I did when I was a kid 
idk why my parents let me but I as a parent wouldn’t let my 12 year old drink an energy drink it’s definitely not healthy
Of course not. But I have a 12 year old and he will find a a way if he really wants one.
I don’t like my kids drinking energy drinks, however I do let them drink coffee. If they want red bulls (like me and my husband get from the coffee stand) then we just get them “kid red bulls” (the coffee stand we go to makes them Italian sodas and calls them red bulls so the kids think they’re getting the same thing as us just in a smaller size). It works great for us. However a few times they have gotten ahold of ours and took a few drinks 
definitely wouldn’t let them actually have energy drinks though. They definitely don’t need them. Coffee they’re only allowed to have because it mellows them out a bit and they don’t drink much of it at a time either.
