My science teacher says that caffeine is a drug and children should not drink it. I told her that sodas have caffeine.
SO IS CAFFEINE A DRUG OR NOT?!?!?!?!?!?

Technically, it is. But it wont affect you nearly as much as overdose of other drugs, such as acetaminophen(found in Tylenol and aspirin).

Of course caffeine is a drug. So is alcohol and tobacco. Any substance that changes the way you feel is a psychoactive drug.

children should not drink it cause it makes them stop growing
its a drug only when you drink it too much (like everything just happend to be a drug when you use it too many times a day)

yes - it is a drug. But that's not why children shouldn't have it.
Baby tylenol contains 'drugs' too.
